On 13 May 2026, the European Space Agency ESA and the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI invite you to attend the Deep-Tech × Space Summit, to be held at the European Space Deep-Tech Innovation Centre (ESDI) at Park Innovaare, near Zurich.
This half-day summit brings together CTOs and technology leaders from Europe’s deep tech and space sectors to discuss challenges, opportunities, and the commercialisation of deep tech.
The event aims to encourage new collaborations between deep tech and space actors, shaping technology strategy and commercialisation in areas such as quantum technologies, AI, robotics, and advanced materials.
Summit Objectives
- Explore how frontier technologies can help address current and future space challenges while enabling commercial success.
- Identify and tackle manufacturing bottlenecks that prevent deep tech breakthroughs from reaching industrial scale, particularly where organisational design and production readiness lag behind scientific maturity.
- Support partnerships between the European deep tech and space sectors, focusing on accelerating the path to commercialisation.
- Strengthen the connection between Swiss deep tech innovation and the wider European sector through the joint efforts of ESA and PSI at ESDI.
Please note that this event will be photographed for social media use.
