The space resources start-up support program will support early-stage ventures and start-ups in the development of their technological value proposals and near-term sustainable business models.
Supporting start-ups is one of the four pillars of the European Space Resources Innovation Centre (ESRIC), the unique Luxembourg-based innovation center fully focused on space resources utilization. On 26 October 2021, ESRIC Director Mathias Link announced the launch of the first program worldwide dedicated to commercial initiatives in the field of space resources use.
