ESA (European Space Agency) launched OSIP (Open Space Innovation Platform) to better serve the emerging needs of the modern space sector. The platform is now the main entry point for novel ideas into ESA, both in response to specific problems and through open calls for ideas. Anybody is welcome to submit ideas for new space technologies and applications via OSIP. The platform supports individuals who wish to contribute to European space research and interact with space industry experts. It also encourages ideas from legal entities interested in interacting with ESA and gaining funding or support for new research activities.
