The European Space Agency (ESA) and the European Commission invite European and ESA Member states industry to a User Terminal workshop including a presentation of the ARTES and IRIS² User Terminal Roadmap, industry panels, and round tables.
The European satellite ecosystem is advancing its capabilities to support the deployment of future satellite constellations and resilient infrastructures for European citizens. This workshop will focus on the development and deployment of competitive European user terminal solutions as a key enabler of satellite connectivity. It will address the complete user terminals technology and value chain, from key components (flat panel antennas, interfaces, chipsets) through terminal integration, regulatory certification, and scalable production.
The objective is to align stakeholders on targeted priorities and capabilities, initiate discussions on upcoming procurement opportunities within the ARTES and IRIS² Programmes, and enable structured networking (B2B sessions) between ESA, the European Commission (EC), and industry participants.
