Masterclass description: Masterclass to present concrete use cases of space application from start-ups and established players. The objective is to inspire Lift entrepreneurs to get involved and get a better grasp on the business opportunities in the field.

We will first touch on the financing mechanisms provided by ESA for space applications and give the floor to Swiss and European companies that have been playing an important role in this field for the past decades.

The masterclass will focus on discussing business models that work (or not) in Telecom and combined applications of observation and localization.
