•    a few days after the launch by the European Commission of a new tender for additional Galileo satellites,  

•    and at a time when the EU Institutions are negotiating the EU’s future Multiannual Financial Framework (2014-2020) (which will determine the timescale and conditions for the completion of the two flagship European space programmes, Galileo and GMES), and the support that is to be given, through the R&D framework “Horizon 2020”, to the development of new innovative space technologies and services.

This event will provide the 700 participants already registered with a perfect opportunity:

•    for discussion and debate on current and future EU space policy, its financing and governance, related EU industrial and innovation policy, and the benefits of space-based applications and services for European citizens and businesses, the fight against climate change and environmental degradation, combating security threats, etc.;

•    for bringing together key political decision-makers, including representatives of national and European institutions and authorities, and representatives of industry, research centres and civil society.
