Permanent Open Call for Technology Transfer Feasibility Study Proposals

As part of efforts to promote the use of space technologies, a Permanent Open Call for Technology Transfer Feasibility Study Proposals has recently been opened. MST Aerospace GmbH is entrusted by the European Space Agency with the set-up, administration and implementation of this Call. MST Aerospace acts as a prime contractor of the Agency in the field of technology transfer from space and leads a European network of technology experts and brokers for the exploitation of space technologies in different branches.

Permanent Open Call for Technology Transfer
The purpose of this Call is to allow space and non-space entities or individuals to submit proposals for studies to assess the feasibility of a possible transfer of a technology from a space donor to a non-space receiver. MST offers to support feasibility studies for technology transfer by selecting and funding an independent expert entity to perform the study.
