European Open Space Innovation Platform FabSpace 2.0
​
Following the FabLab model, the objective of the FabSpace project is to build and support a new generation of platform dedicated to space and big data applications, housed within universities and providing users with all kinds of development tools and data.
The aim of these regional open innovation platforms is to bring academia, industry and community together in the same environment, and lead to value creation based on a wide range of available data.
Fed with various data from space infrastructures (Copernicus, Galileo for instance), local councils, universities or other research institute, the platforms will provide beneficiaries (mainly university students) with the physical and financial environment, the equipment, and the technical and business expertise required to analyse the data and to stimulate and support the emergence of new innovative solutions.
The ultimate objective is to lead to the co-creation of new business ideas and opportunities based on cross-sectorial collaborations.
