EUSPA - EU Agency for the Space Programme

The EU Agency for the Space Programme (EUSPA) provides safe and performant space services, enabling synergies, EU innovation, sustainability, and security. To achieve this, EUSPA manages the Galileo and EGNOS programmes, develops markets for Copernicus services and data, is involved in secure satcom (GOVSATCOM & IRIS2), and carries out work in various areas targeted at Security, Research and Development and increasing space's contribution to the EU Market. The Agency is also responsible for the security accreditation of all the components of the EU Space Programme. EUSPA also operates the #EUSST Front Desk, protecting more than 400 satellites from the risk of collision with space debris or other operational satellites. EUSPA, staffed with skilled professionals bringing relevant experience from the public and private sectors, is unique in contributing to one of the most important and ambitious projects ever undertaken by the EU. We are committed to implementing the EU Space Programme and turning the EU space ambitions into a reality.
