  3. What do we offer to regions? NEREUS Dynamic Platform- Mobilising EU-funded projects Info/Knowledge exchange Promotion of regional space activities Direct channel to European regions and its stakeholders Advocate for regions on matters of space uses

  4. East Midlands • Foundingmember of NEREUS-network • East Midlands are involved in the politicalrepresentation of the network and share the vice- presidencywithBremen • NEREUS-Working Group  »Technologies fromSpace Exploration » isco-chaired by the East Midlands (Dr. Richard Ambrosi) • East Midlands are involved in several EU-fundedprojectsthatweremobilized on the NEREUS-platform: THE ISSUE and the former DORIS_NET initiative (now RCO-network), ERASMUS

  5. Why NEREUS & space exploration? • NEREUS is about bringing the benefits of space to regions, their citizens and companies • In the area of space exploration NEREUS focus is on collecting knowledge and spreading awareness and understanding how activities in this field can be exploited at regional level • → for commercial purposes (spin-offs) • → for scientific/educational purposes • → for inspirational purposes

  6. Region’sinterest in space exploration? Space policy is a key element in the Europe 2020 Strategy The challenges linked with ambitious space exploration missions contribute to stimulate innovations which can lead to a transfer of technologies to the benefit of other sectors of the economy Space exploration is a driver for innovations in numerous non-space sectors and strengthens industrial competitiveness (e.g. robotics) Spin-offs and robotics industries, create many market opportunities primarily for SMEs and high quality employment,

  7. Whatis the added value of regions ? Regions are political, economic and social decision maker and the closes level to the citizen Regions unite in their territory actors of innovation triangle (industry, SME, academia, research organisations) Regions host different economic and business communities (linking non-space sector and space sector) Regions support and host innovation stimulating structures (such as business parks, clusters, networks, etc.)

  8. NEREUS-Position Paper: Space Exploration& Horizon2020 (1) • Public awareness raising/outreach to society and technology transfer • Better connecting the space and non-space sectors • Interdependencies between exploration, innovation and science/technology development need to be made more transparent and brought into a more recognizable societal context • Space exploration R&D and technologydevelopment in Europe shouldalso of SME and regionalstakeholderintoconsideration

  9. NEREUS-Position Paper: Space Exploration& Horizon2020 (2) • More extensive exploitation of space data from exploration and science at the service of society • EnhancingstrongEuropeanpartnerships • Enhancingbetter coordination among relevant Europeanplayerwith respect to space science and technology development
