Business powered by space

Boosting Austria’s space ecosystem with impact in our everyday lives

ESA Space Solutions is the go-to place for great business ideas involving space in all areas of society and economy. Their mission is to support entrepreneurs in Europe in the development of business using satellite applications and space technology.

In Austria, the ESA Space Solutions Austria is a hub for entrepreneurship and innovation powered by space, supporting in many ways students, SMEs, researchers and businesses in general to harness the power of space to boost their ideas.

The track record of Science Park Graz and its closest partners gained through the implementation of ESA BIC Austria since 2016 (supporting about 50 start-ups) and the enormous potential still to be discovered in Austria and beyond were fundamental reasons to expand and upgrade to the ESA Space Solutions Centre Austria.

ESA Space Solutions Centre Austria is a one-stop-shop for space-enabled innovation offering:

Pre-incubation programme, to test and validate business ideas and prepare a knowledgeable generation of entrepreneurs
ESA Business Incubation programme, to get products and services to the market, including funding, brand and network integration
ESA Spark Funding Austria, to accelerate the commercialisation path
Access to space technology and exploration of business cases using space
Events and opportunities, such as Space4Energy Hackathon.
