iOpener presented their product 'Real-time Games' at yesterdays launch of the European Space Agency Investment Forum. Organised by ESA's Technology Transfer Programme Office (TTPO), in collaboration with EC-projects FinanceSpace and INVESaT, the forum was held at the European Space Research and Technology Centre (ESTEC) in the Netherlands.
The event attracted more than 100 participants from all over Europe, including representatives from the finance and investment communities, the European Special Applications Fund and in addition to iOpener, 19 other start-up companies. The focus of the Investment Forum was to highlight the commercial benefits of satellite and space technology in applications on Earth and to give potential investors an opportunity to meet with a number of start-up companies using spin-offs from space technology.
Feedback from the participants was extremely positive; the Forum gave a good overview of the potential commercial benefits emerging from the space sector, featured a selection of impressive business cases and iOpener enjoyed the opportunity to establish additional valuable contacts from the investment community.
