Startups at IAC 2022 pitch to the jury

Presenting at ESA’s Pavilion at the IAC, ten shortlisted start-up companies pitched their business to a jury of ESA experts, ESA partners, and investors. The jury voted for their preferred startup and a runner-up from each of the two categories: Earth observation and space transportation.

On 21 September 2022, ESA's Director of Commercialisation, Industry and Procurement, Géraldine Naja, announced two winners at the 73rd International Astronautical Congress (IAC 2022) at the Paris Convention Centre in Paris.
