Based on the User Consultation 2025 outcomes, explore how EU Space market segments are evolving and how these insights can support the further development of the EU Space Programme services and related technologies. 

The report reflects how global space downstream sector has expanded beyond Earth Observation and Global Navigation Satellite System to include emerging areas like Secure Satellite Communication and Space Situational Awareness.

The EU Space Programme continues to advance, with the successful launch of Sentinel-1D, the upcoming Galileo Launch 14, and several additional missions planned for 2026, marking another strong step forward for Europe’s leadership in space and innovation.

With global participants, the online workshop highlights the role of Copernicus and EO services in addressing the challenges of the forestry industry.

Leveraging Copernicus data and benefiting from the support of EUSPA, companies like AXA Climate are developing parametric insurance models for the forestry segment.

Through its Horizon Europe funded projects, EUSPA is bringing the benefits of EU Space to international markets.

The solution proposed by the Horizon Europe project will increase forest management productivity and cost-effectiveness, and enable forest managers, authorities, and policymakers to deal with forest threats proactively.

In the lead up to the International Day of Forests, let’s highlight the central role Earth Observation plays in a number of EU forestry regulations.

Galileo Open Service (OS) has been upgraded with three I/NAV improvements. It will result in faster availability and increased robustness

You can’t have a healthy planet without healthy forests – and you can’t have healthy forests without EU Space.
