Services and target groups

Business Finland's New Space Economy program offers funding, networks and internationalization services for developing global space business.

The New Space Economy program funds startup companies that are reforming the sector, growth-seeking manufacturing companies, and businesses focused on data utilization. Companies must be registered in Finland.

The program also funds Finnish space research.

OBJECTIVES

The objective is supported by the establishment of the European Space Agency (ESA) business incubation centre Finland, offering a good platform for 50 growth-seeking companies for a liftoff to the international markets in the coming years.
