Copernicus pre-incubation

Actualité -

Call for applications

COME WITH A GOOD IDEA, LEAVE WITH A BUSINESS PROJECT!

Do you have a project that uses Copernicus data? You need support to realize it? Take advantage of a pre-incubation program to make it happen!

CNES and Aerospace Valley are launching a call for applications to select 4 young companies or project leaders who will benefit from a 6-month pre-incubation program to help them transform their project into a company.

WHO CAN APPLY?

This call for projects is intended to be widely open: it concerns all project leaders in France (companies or not) as long as they rely on the use of Copernicus data.

The projects submitted must have a minimum positioning of 4 on the TRL scale.

Ideally, the applicant will already have a vision of the market targeted by its service / product. If the company has already been created, it must not already be in an incubator.
