The use of space infrastructure and data results in an endless stream of applications on Earth. While an increasing number of European startups and SMEs provide downstream space solutions in numerous sectors, service providers still struggle with the overall perception that space solutions are expensive and complex.
With the Space Service Hub we aim to overcome some of the major obstacles in the integration and adoption of satellite-based services. Avoiding technical jargon and with a strong focus on the use and benefits, this initiative goes well beyond the beaten tracks of space outreach to present satellite services to potential customers in a friendly and engaging way.

Eurisy is a non-profit association of European space agencies, governmental offices and international organisations in charge of space affairs. Eurisy favours dialogue and supports collaboration between public institutions, SMEs, industry, and academia across the space value chain. In doing so, Eurisy aims to advance the dissemination of space-derived innovation across society by leveraging its wide network of end-users. The objective is to raise awareness of satellite applications and to provide bottom-up feedback to decision-makers on the challenges faced in the uptake of space-enabled product and services. We support emerging satellite solutions which can help professional communities in many sectors of application: from transport to risk management, from habitat protection to energy, from climate change to the Internet of Things, to name a few.
