This is a unique opportunity to gain an overview of all the recently completed activities and to discuss them with colleagues from both ESA and industry across the satellite telecommunications sector.

A recent event organised by ESA focussed on role satcoms will play in the realisation of 5G networks.

This annual event is to share the results of recently completed Future Preparation (formerly ARTES 1) activities. Registration for the event is free and open to anyone based in the ARTES Participating States.

21 September 2016 – A new whitepaper, Assessing satellite-terrestrial integration opportunities in the 5G environment, prepared with the support of ESA through the ARTES programme, is now available for download.

The world of Machine-to-Machine and the Internet of Things is rapidly evolving, bringing forth new users and new products.  This in turn creates challenges and opportunities for the satcom industry. This first ever workshop on M2M and IoT is co-organised by TEC and TIA. Register now

The Final Presentation Days represent a unique opportunity to gain a complete overview of recently completed ARTES Future Preparations activities, and to discuss them with colleagues from ESA and other representatives of the satellite telecommunications sector. Registration is now open.

30 September 2015 – Two ARTES-supported studies of ESA's Vega rocket provide the telecommunications satellite industry with a strategic roadmap for future developments in the highly competetive global launcher market.

The ARTES 1 Final Presentation Days for 2015 will take place at ESA/ESTEC - Noordwijk, The Netherlands on the 14th and 15th of January 2015

We will review the state of the art in W-band satellite communications equipment, propagation models, system aspects and the perspectives for its use in the future. Registration is now open.

ESA is pleased to invite members of the satellite communication industry from European Member States and Canada to participate in the ARTES Call For Ideas. ESA is looking for proposals for long-term preliminary studies and technology development-related activities.
