As in previous years, the 2020 virtual edition of the “European Space Week” will address space-related topics and engage the entire European Space community, from policy-makers and start-ups to public authorities and industry players, and from investors to users. With its unique blend of plenaries, panel discussions, programme status updates, and virtual networking opportunities, European Space Week is a not-to-be-missed event for anybody interested in the current challenges and future trends of the EU Space ecosystem. The event is held under the auspices of the German Presidency of the EU Council and co-organised by the EU and German space agencies.
