InSPoC Convergence Workshop

SHARE
Event category: FLPP
28 October 2025, 13:00 – 29 October 2025, 12:00

On 28 October, the day before ESA’s Future Space Transportation Autumn Session, teams from InSPoC-1, InSPoC-2 and InSPoC-3 will gather in Paris for a dedicated workshop.

The invite-only event will bring together project participants and ESA for a full day of shaping Europe’s in-space transportation ecosystem.

Programme

The workshop includes:

  • Cross-project workshops
  • Matchmaking opportunities
  • Informal networking among InSPoC-1, -2 and -3 teams

These activities support InSPoC’s goal of developing technologies for in-space refilling, cryogenic storage, and on-board intelligence – essential steps towards Odyssey, ESA’s future orbital propellant depot.
