format

ON-SITE

The Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC) and the Digital Catalonia Alliance (DCA), with the support of the i2CAT Research and Innovation Centre, are organising a presentation day for the projects and calls of the ESA Phi-Lab Spain, the competence centre dedicated to driving innovation in the commercialisation of space technologies to support climate resilience.

The event will take place on Wednesday 25 November from 10 am to 12 pm at the i2CAT auditorium and will feature five round-table discussions to explore how space technology projects funded and supported by the programme are contributing to climate resilience. Each panel will address a different thematic axis: resilient communications, water resource management, SAR technology, emergency management and prevention, and the development and regulation of climate intelligence.
