The first live demonstration of SATis5 will take place at the 9th FUSECO Forum November 15-16 2018 “Preparing Industry Verticals for Edge Computing, Network Slicing & 5G”. The SATis5 is the ARTES funded specifically focused on satellite integration with 5G terrestrial networks.

5G has the potential to change the way we live our lives and is already creating new business opportunities across multiple industry verticals. This event is aimed for organistaions that want to benefit from the next generation communication networks, enhance their business and enable 5G applications. 

A unique opportunity to build cross-sector relationships, learn, and explore how research in the unique environment of space is creating opportunities to meet key challenges here on Earth, and how you could get involved.

ESA Business Applications will host a workshop to showcase the impact that the integration of 5G and space can make to societies, offering a platform where Industry, Institutions, local communities, representatives of vertical sectors and National Delegations can be informed and discuss planned new initiatives.

UKSA has announced the 2nd Call for UK InCubed Proposals, for evaluation and approval of UK projects intending to bid into the European Space Agency (ESA) InCubed programme. Proposals must be on the designated application form (available with full information on the call from the UKSA website), and must be submitted to UKSAEOT@ukspaceagency.gov.uk by 5pm Friday 17th August 2018.

The conference will take place at the University of Birmingham in Edgbaston from 4th – 7th September.  It will be a significant gathering of the UK EO and photogrammetry community across research, government and industry, with sessions designed to encompass all aspects of Earth Observation – science, technology, and applications. 

ESA will join the UK Space Agency and UK space industry at Farnborough International Airshow 2018 in the exhibition area in the Space Zone in Hall 1 & on 17th of July for Media Interactive Talks.

The Workshop will bring together major space and non-space stakeholders from the energy, advanced material, biomedical and space domains, to discuss potential cooperative initiatives. 

The course, which was a great success the previous years, will offer a comprehensive introductory overview of satellite communications and navigation. 

ESA, CNES, EDA and the DGA are jointly organising the workshop to promote and facilitate information exchange on wide bandgap technologies for microwave, power switching, sensor and other emerging space/defence applications.
