We believe space is not just about rockets or research – it’s about people. It’s about how science can open minds, how innovation can bring us together, and how bold ideas can build a better tomorrow.
At the European Space Foundation, we create spaces – real and metaphorical – where people connect, learn, and act. We bring together scientists and students, engineers and educators, artists and entrepreneurs. Whether we’re mentoring young teams, guiding new initiatives, or hosting global gatherings, our work is always about one thing: turning inspiration into impact.
We tell stories that move people. On stage, on air, and online, we speak about space in a way that’s relatable and real – linking it to the challenges we all face and the future we all share. From policy panels to public festivals, we show why space matters and who it’s for.
We help people grow. Whether it’s a student building their first rover or a startup shaping their space strategy, we meet people where they are – and support where they’re going. Our workshops, mentorships, and advisory work are about building confidence as much as capability.
Our strength lies in our connections. We bring the right people together. Space thrives on collaboration, and we create the moments where partnerships start – between countries, sectors, and generations. We make it easier for ideas to meet, and for communities to grow.
We design and deliver projects that leave a legacy. From the European Rover Challenge to impact-focused initiatives aligned with the UN SDGs, our work brings space closer to everyday life. Every project is built to inspire, include, and leave something behind – knowledge, confidence, connection.
