The European Commission is supporting start-ups, scaleups and SMEs from the space sector to start matchmaking with corporates and investors to accelerate their business through the CASSINI Matchmaking initiative. If you have a service, a functioning prototype, or a product already on the market with a space connection, the CASSINI Matchmaking programme is a great business opportunity for you. The CASSINI Matchmaking Open Call runs until 15th of January 2023. Check your eligibility and apply for the CASSINI Matchmaking Open Call 2023 today!
The CASSINI Matchmaking initiative provides space companies with dedicated matchmaking events to connect them to new partners and customers. Further, it offers the opportunity to meet with and pitch to investors. On the other hand, investors and corporates benefit from a preselected pool of cutting-edge companies and are presented with streamlined, to-the-point collaboration opportunities from venture capital funding to industrial partnerships. CASSINI Matchmaking is linking space to non-space industries, helping the European economy to grow. Participants gain access to an exclusive network across all business fields, connecting to like-minded pioneers.
Participation is open to EU Space companies that are established in the European Union and offer a service, functioning product prototype, or a product already on the market with a space connection in the following sectors:
·       Smart Logistics & Transportation
·       Smart Cities & Urban Mobility
·       Managing and protecting Earth’s resources from Space
·       Next-gen spacecraft manufacturing & operation
Participants should be open to cooperations/matchmaking with corporates and investors from (non-)space sectors. The CASSINI Matchmaking Open Call runs until 15th of January 2023. Interested in meeting investors and corporates in the space business? Be prepared for your 1:1 meeting with an investor and corporate.
