While some might imagine the Space sector as a distanced and hard-to-reach territory for businesses, this is far from the truth. In fact, the Space economy contains opportunities for innovative entrepreneurs and companies in every sector, via the key concept of ‘Space Connection’: space technologies and space systems can be indeed transferred and/or utilized in any industry.
The 'Taiwan-Europe Space Connection Opportunities Roadshow' event taking place on April 21-22 will feature in-depth insights, analysis and clarifications on the existing pathways for space-connected entrepreneurs to expand their operations between Taiwan and Europe.
The event has two main segments:
The first segment, TW-EU Space Opportunities Seminar, features experts from both regions, presenting the space-connected opportunities available within the existing ecosystems.
The second segment of the event will be the 30’ face-to-face video conference meetings between experts in space technologies and business incubation, and entrepreneurs, students and corporate companies, to discuss the possibility in Taiwan to either create a ‘space-connected’ start-up, or introduce a space technology in existing products/services, or consider the scaling-up and growth in Europe.
Note: The event is at full capacity and registration has closed. Thank you for your interest!
