  7. Turnover vs ESA return

  8. VRI Strategy • Niche: higher level in R&D-programs and in products and services • Co-operation • Continuum: to develop technology for marketable products starting from ESA technology programmes • Strategic choices within ESA

  9. Non-Space Spin-Offs • SPACE PRODUCTS require the implementation of Advanced Technologies • ESA IPR rules • This allows some VRI members to build up technological capacities, which can be easlily exploited used in non-space domains; • Via Technology Transfer these capacities are used by more conservative third • parties By doing so, one of our VRI members turned out to be a top-5 contributor to regional economical growth (Vlerick management school research) (considering own and third party economical growth)
