Eurisy Members' Day
Space Agencies’ learn from their respective user support programmes
8 December 2011, Paris
Representatives of Eurisy’s members – most European space agencies – met in Paris to discuss their respective user support initiatives. In addition to drawing on each other’s experience in terms of the governance of these initiatives, the meeting sought to outline their complementarity on a European level. The main common agreement was that it is crucial that the needs of the end-user, not the space technology itself, should be the starting point of any discussion about the potential benefits of space technologies.
