The Ministry of Innovation and Digital Transformation and the European Space Agency (ESA) will hold an information event on October 6 and 7 focusing on new support opportunities for Bulgaria’s space sector. The event will take place at Sofia Tech Park in the capital, the ministry said on its official website on Monday.

Representatives of companies, startups, research organisations and universities will have the opportunity to learn about the application requirements under the 12th call of the Plan for European Cooperating States (PECS).

ESA experts will provide practical guidance on preparing project proposals, developing a business case and working with a Statement of Work (SoW). Participants will also have the opportunity to hold individual meetings with the agency’s experts to discuss their ideas and potential projects.

The event is part of Bulgaria’s commitments under PECS and aims to encourage the participation of Bulgarian organisations in ESA programmes, foster the development of high-tech solutions and strengthen the country’s position in the European space sector.
