European Space Agency Estonian Business Incubation (ESA BIC Estonia) which was opened in autumn last year, is waiting for novel space related startups to apply for 50\u00a0000 \u20ac grant.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Head of Startup Incubator in Tallinn Science Park Tehnopol, Martin Goro\u0161ko, said that every company whose product or service relates to space is welcomed to apply. \u201cMany companies don\u2019t realize today that their product is related to space or it could be related with little effort. Applications using Satellite Navigation or earth observation data, novel materials or technologies \u2013 these are only few examples of services and applications that we are looking for,\u201d explained Goro\u0161ko<\/p>\n

ESA BIC Estonia Manager Andrus Kurvits said that 50\u00a0000 \u20ac grant helps teams to take the next step in product development. \u201cOur first call showed that Estonia is indeed an amazing space country and we have people and companies that develop novel space related applications. Last year we gave out first grants which were co-financed by our consortium partners, cities of Tartu and Tallinn, and were meant for product and IPR development. We are hoping for great achievements in international market from companies that got development grant. We plan to take two more companies in to our Incubation programme in spring call that is already open, \u201csaid Kurvits optimistically.<\/p>\n

Application deadline for next call is 8th<\/sup> of March 2018! For further information about applying look at https:\/\/www.esabic.ee\/<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
