Society is currently experiencing a transition in the Digital and Green Economy area. It is revolutionising business models, technology innovation and use, consumption and offering of applications, and sharing of knowledge involving both human and machine spheres.
Digital transformation, integrating digital technology into all areas of a business, will result in fundamental changes to how businesses operate and how they deliver value to customers, while increasing the competitiveness of the industrial sectors, impacting not only the private but also the public sector including agencies and organisations.
Green economy is defined as low carbon, resource efficient and socially inclusive economy, pursuing knowledge and practices that can lead to more environmentally friendly and ecologically responsible decisions and lifestyles, which can help protect the environment and sustain its natural resources for current and future generations.
Telecommunications, together with its space component, will play a major role in the Digital Transition and Green Economy. Therefore, ESA issues a Thematic Call to support companies in delivering their business propositions.
