Choosing the GALAXIA space centre means getting the chance to rub shoulders with some huge international names when it comes to space: the European Space Agency, the European GNSS, Vitrociset-Leonardo, Redu Space Services and many more.
European Space Agency (ESA-ESEC)
As part of its new policy, the European Space Agency is giving private companies the opportunity to benefit from new services to which it previously had exclusive access. This includes access to technical facilities, offering the opportunity to send and receive data by satellite via a secure optical link.
SES
SES was the world’s first telecommunication satellite operator. This company, dedicated to space, specialises in marketing technologies, know-how, technical support and training on satellite communication all around the world.
Within the GALAXIA business centre, SES offers its expertise to the companies based there.
European Union Agency for the Space Programme
EUSPA, European Union Agency for the Space Programme, is committed to connecting space with the actual needs of users. Indeed, space is the new technological revolution, and it’s changing the way we live, work and play. In addition, EUSPA’s main role is to make sure that European citizens make the most of European satellite navigation programmes like GALILEO. Specialist teams from the EUSPA work at the GALILEO centre at GALAXIA.
