Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) provide not only a large potential for innovation, they also represent an ever-increasing share of the European space industrial landscape. In view of the increasing relevance of SMEs for the activities of the European Space Agency (ESA) and the industrial base of its Member States the Agency and SME4Space are conducting a survey to better understand the involvement of SMEs in space and space-related activities.
The survey intends to provide an overview on upstream and downstream space activities, and space-related (use of space technology in other industries) activities in the 2015-2020 period and is organised with the support of the University of Leuven.
On behalf of ESA and SME4Space SME active in these areas are invited to participate to this important survey and help to further improve the evidence-based support to policy making for space SMEs.
