Who is it for?
Astropreneurs specifically targeted start-ups: entrepreneurs in idea phase or registered companies that qualify as SMEs. The product or service had to be aimed at space market/use or based on a transfer of space technology or space system use in a non-space environment (“downstream applications”). They had to be located in a European Union member state or a country participating in H2020 program. Any non-EU entrepreneur, if selected, had to establish an EU firm to be eligible.

What’s in it for you?
50 hours of mentoring from Astropreneurs mentors and experts. The mentorship went on for 6 months, and there was a series of events to participate in, for training, contacts and business network.

When can you apply?
Applications to Astropreneurs are closed. See a final project video on astropreneurs.eu.
