The <\/span>SCO World Virtual Congress 2026<\/span><\/a> will take place online from 16 to 20 November. Organised by the <\/span>Space for Climate Observatory<\/span><\/a> (SCO), the international congress will be held in parallel with the 31st United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP31). The event will bring together representatives from institutions, research organisations and companies worldwide to share experiences and solutions based on space technologies to address the challenges of climate change.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>As part of the congress, the <\/span>Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia<\/span><\/a> (IEEC) and the <\/span>European Association of Remote Sensing Companies<\/span><\/a> (EARSC) will co-organise and co-moderate the European session <\/span>Data to Impact: Lessons Learned for European Climate Initiatives<\/span><\/i>, which will take place on 18 November, from 10:00 to 11:30 CET.<\/span><\/p>\n

The session will explore how satellite data can be transformed into operational services to address climate challenges. Drawing on experiences from different European regions, it will examine the key factors that support the implementation of these solutions, including sustainable business models, public-private collaboration, public procurement and the adaptation of services to end-user needs.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>The programme will feature Davoud Omarzadeh, Earth Observation Project Manager at the Area for the Promotion of the Space Sector of Catalonia within the IEEC, who will open the session, and Maria Galindo Garc\u00eda-Delgado, Secretary for Digital Policies at the Ministry of Business and Labour of the Government of Catalonia, who will deliver a presentation on regional resilience and climate finance. Two roundtable discussions will also bring together representatives from various European organisations to share experiences in the application of climate services and explore opportunities for collaboration between the public sector, industry and research.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>The SCO World Virtual Congress 2026 will feature thematic sessions focusing on different climate challenges and regions worldwide, aiming to showcase the results of SCO projects, foster international cooperation and promote the use of space data in climate adaptation and resilience policies.<\/span><\/p>\n
