Finnish New Space Economy cooperation opportunities in Germany

Finland has embarked on a New Space Economy programme to help start-ups renew the space sector and to help manufacturing companies seek growth in new markets. SpaceTec Partners supported Business Finland, the Finnish public funding agency, by preparing an information package and market study on the German New Space market.

This market study included a mapping of Finnish New Space stakeholders against German domains and opportunity areas, taken from Novaspace’s New Space study for the Germany Ministry of Economy. Additionally, target markets in Germany were analysed and potential partners in Germany and Western Europe were prioritised for Finnish companies.

The workshop facilitated one-to-one interviews between key companies and start-ups, to provide concrete business development links. To solidify the connections made at the initial workshop, a follow-up matchmaking day was held in May.
