Space Academy Paris Now Open

Welcome to the application form for the Space Academies!

Dear entrepreneur,

Please provide your business information in the application form below in order to express your interest in taking part in the next Space Academy and receiving the business services for your company.

The Space Academy in Paris will be held from 8-9 March 2021 in parallel with Paris Space Week. Currently measures are in place to ensure it will go ahead either as a hybrid or wholly virtual event. All selected participants will be entitled to all of the below services in either case.

Our high-level Evaluation Committee will evaluate all eligible applicants and select 10 companies that will receive several benefits:

• 4 In-depth report studies of your company and its proposed service/product focusing on aspects such as the business model design, intellectual property rights, access to finance and human resources;
• 6 customised one-to-one meetings with international experts;
• A pitching slot on Day 2 of the Space Academy (embedded into the main event);
• A lump sum for travel support.

Please note that you have to submit a business plan before the deadline, extended to 21st January 2021, to enable our in-depth analysis and evaluation of your company by SpaceUp experts. Applications without a business plan or a similar document as the application for SME Instrument phase 2 will be disregarded and will not be eligible to apply for the services, although you will still be welcome to join us for the general Space Academy workshops.

You will be notified about the results approximately two weeks after the deadline.
