AMBASSADOR PLATFORMS

The seminar discusses new potential applications and business ideas. It serves as a networking platform to establish new contacts and build advanced consortiums. The programme focuses on three areas; industrial internet, location data and intelligent transport.

The aim of the workshop is to present currently available satellite multicasting technologies and assets to the transport sector, explore applications and business models for use of these assets and identify technical and commercial challenges that must be overcome to exploit multicasting technology in the transport sector.

In concert with the UK IAP Ambassador Platform, the UK Satellite Applications Catapult and the Transport Systems Catapult are co-organising a participatory workshop event concerning satellite applications for the multi-modal transport logistics sector.

AP-Swiss and i-net invite you to learn about the opportunities of ESA's IAP programme.
