#myEUspace competition deadline extended, take your chance!
#myEUspace competition is on a mission to bring disruptive, space-based commercial solutions and applications to the European market. The contest invites the participants to innovate not only with Copernicus and Galileo but also with quantum technology. We have great news for all the late birds – the competition deadline has been extended to 3 December 2021, 23:59 GMT+2!
With more than two weeks left until the deadline, let’s take a look at how you can make the most out of this additional time.
Choose from six challenges
#myEUspace is one of the biggest competitions ever organized by the European Union Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA). The winning prize pool is nearly €1million, 54 teams will receive awards ranging from €10.000 to €50.000.
The contest has two independent tracks and six different thematic areas:
Track 1 – From Idea to Prototype/customer validation – aims to turn a theoretical idea into a product prototype/beta version.
Track 2 – From Prototype to Product /Market entry – encourages to develop a prototype or beta idea into a Minimum Viable Product (MVP).
Your space-tech based idea/product should address one of these six challenges: Move Me Smart, Space Up My Life, Our Green Planet, Map My World, Farming by Satellite, and Dive in Quantum. You can learn more about each challenge here.
