3 Intro From November 2017, the fourth edition of the Satellite Masters Conference takes place in line with the Horizon 2020 Space Info Day. The conference represents an innovation marketplace for satellite downstream business. This pioneering event connects high-level representatives from leading institutions and forward-thinking industry with thriving startups and award-winning entrepreneurs. The info day provides first-hand information on the topics that will be included in the next set of Horizon 2020 calls. Success stories of former applicants are presented and participants have the opportunity to obtain expert advice on how to prepare a successful proposal. A mix of presentation sessions, workshops, and roundtable discussions covers various aspects such as public and private funding opportunities, support mechanisms for entrepreneurs, future trends and space technologies. Both events are part of the European Space Week 2017 which is organised by the European Commission under the auspices of the Estonian presidency of the Council of the EU and co-organised by the European Space Agency, AZO Anwendungszentrum GmbH Oberpfaffenhofen and Garage48.
