AER-EURISY workshop

Innovation at the service of regional growth

    The aim of the workshop will be to raise awareness and exchange on the Competitive Advantages of Satellite Information and Services. It is jointly organised by the AER and Eurisy.

    Eurisy is a Non Governmental Organisation (NGO), created in 1989  with the aim of promoting the benefits of space for European society. It plays a strategic role in anchoring space to society, raising awareness among decision-makers, civil society and users, of the strategic importance of space for sustainable economic, environmental and social development policies.

    This is a non-technical workshop aiming is to teach regional representatives about the added value satellite technology can bring to improving the quality of the business environment in Regions by investing in modern infrastructure. Best-practice presentations and case studies will be featured, through multi-disciplinary discussions of issues such as  decision-making, financing mechanisms, cost, implementation difficulties in regards to benefits and return on investment.

    If you want to learn more about how other pioneering Regions use satellite information and services to increase attractiveness with investors and workers, you are kindly invited to join us in Dublin!

    Please note that AER members do not have to pay any conference fees for participating to this event. Registration is nevertheless required for administrative reasons – please send your registration form to Mary Fouassier in Eurisy.


    If you wish to participate in a case study on how your Regional economy can benefit from satellite information and services, please write to Agnès Ciccarone for expressions of interest (only one or two projects will be retained). You will receive free advice from a multi-disciplinary group of experts who will analyse your situation and make recommendations on a business plan to fit your challenges.
