LUXEMBOURG SPACE CAPABILITIES 01 EDITORIAL

THIS CATALOGUE For Luxembourg, the diversification of its economy is an everyday SERVES AS AN challenge. OPEN INVITATION The space sector is one of the priority sectors that Luxembourg TO POTENTIAL has constantly promoted since its entry into the space business more than 25 years ago. The efforts to put in place the necessary INTERNATIONAL measures to support the continued strengthening of its space PARTNERS sector clearly demonstrate the long-lasting commitment of the Government.

This catalogue of Luxembourg Space Capabilities showcases the capabilities of our national actors and serves as an open invitation to potential international partners to identify and establish successful research and business relationships with these actors. Since its first edition, this directory has revealed the constant expansion and consolidation of the Luxembourg space landscape. Many of the players presented here are not only known beyond the borders of the Grand Duchy, but their capabilities are now recognised by the international space community. Luxembourg will continue deploying the means to expand and consolidate this sector in order to attract new players and develop new activities.

Etienne SCHNEIDER Deputy Prime Minister Minister of the Economy

1 Similar to the private broadcasting and satellite communications visions formulated decades ago and successfully implemented by the Grand-Duchy, the SpaceResources.lu initiative launched in February 2016 is a next step in the government’s continued efforts to further develop the national space sector. This initiative defines an overall framework to promote and support the exploration and commercial utilisation of resources from ‘celestial bodies’ such as asteroids or from the moon.

The identification and utilization of space resources is fast becoming a reality, driven by a revolution in space technology, ac- celerating exploration of outer space and the eventual scarcity of certain resources on Earth. Building on its long history at the forefront of the commercial satellite communications industry, Luxembourg aims to play a leading role in the exploration and utilization of these resources.

Its goal is to ensure that space resources explored under its ju- risdiction serve a peaceful purpose, are gathered and used in a sustainable manner compatible with international law and for the benefit of humankind. Luxembourg’s vision is built on support for advanced research activities and technological capabilities, drawing on the country’s existing expertise in the space sector and its ongoing strategy of economic diversification into future-oriented high-tech industries.

In the years to come, the focus on space resources exploration and utilization will generate attractive opportunities in Luxem- bourg for established and start-up players in areas including materials science, additive manufacturing, remote sensing, communications, robotics, data analytics and artificial intelligence.

LUXEMBOURG SPACE CAPABILITIES LUXEMBOURG SPACE CLUSTER

DEPLOY Since 2005, when Luxembourg officially became a member state THE SPACE of ESA, the space policy of Luxembourg’s Government has been supporting the diversification of space activities and their positive TECHNOLOGY impact on many other economic sectors (materials, ICT, environ- KNOW-HOW mental technologies, etc.). It is clear that research and technological development in space constitute a huge strategic challenge. “MADE IN In Luxembourg, most of the specialised players of the space sec- LUXEMBOURG” tor know each other, but it is of utter importance to showcase BEYOND ITS Luxembourg’s space sector on the international scene. NATIONAL With the new initiative of Luxembourg’s Government to develop BORDERS from Luxembourg a peaceful exploitation of space resources, new momentum has been created which will foster the activities of the Luxembourg space cluster even further.

The catalogue of competences, skills, products and services presents the capabilities of the private and public entities with their multicultural work force which are active in Luxembourg’s space sector and contribute to its dynamism. It is an easy reference guide for international companies and institutions to spur international collaboration.

As Chairman of the Luxembourg Space Cluster, I strongly support this initiative which helps to deploy the know-how “made in Luxembourg” beyond its national borders.

Bilateral or multilateral cooperation, bringing together physical means, energies or brain power, must remain a focus of Luxem- bourg’s space policy.

Yves ELSEN Chairman of the Luxembourg Space Cluster and the GLAE (Groupement Luxembourgeois de l’Aéronautique et de l’Espace)

5 03 LUXEMBOURG SPACE POLICY

Luxembourg entered into space in 1985 through the creation of the Société Eu- ropéenne des Satellites (SES), a landmark for satellite telecommunications and a major player in this sector.

This initiative has not only led to the development and growth of SES, but also to the development of an entire space industry in Luxembourg.

The second step in positioning the country in the space sector was Luxembourg’s accession to the European Space Agency (ESA). This membership, preceded by a cooperation agreement on the telecommunications programme of the Agency (ARTES), became effective on 30 June 2005, with Luxembourg becoming the 17th Member State of ESA.

The third step taken recently by the Luxembourg government has been to position the country as a pioneer in the development of the space resources economy, which has been announced in February 2016 and promoted under the branding SpaceResources.lu. This initiative led in only 1 year to the definition of a specific space law and the establishment of 3 major companies active in this domain.

These three steps clearly highlight the commitment of the Luxembourg government to promote the Grand Duchy as a hub for innovative space projects in advanced technologies and the will to reinforce the competences of the national actors.

With this aim, Luxembourg has developed a space policy, whose main objectives are to: • contribute to the diversification and sustainability of economic activities in Luxembourg • consolidate and enhance existing skills in the field of telecommunications and media as well as ground systems, • extend skills in the sector, • give an international dimension to the activities through an access to international networks, • implement the spaceresources.lu initiative

Achieving these objectives requires the allocation of financial resources at European and national levels.

LUXEMBOURG SPACE CAPABILITIES FINANCIAL RESOURCES AT EUROPEAN LEVEL

• Sustained contributions of Luxembourg in ESA programmes for the support to technology development and the development of products, services and space infrastructures in Telecommunications, Earth Observation and Space Situational Awareness. • These budgets allow players in Luxembourg to access the space market that has high specificities and level entrance barriers: - from a technical point of view due to the high technical environment of space, - from a legitimacy point of view: access to activities is only possible if players are known and recognised by major established actors in this field.

FINANCIAL RESOURCES AT NATIONAL LEVEL

• Provision at ESA level of a budget to implement a national space programme (LuxIMPULSE), • Provision of a budget allowing Luxembourg young graduates to enter the training programme of ESA (LuxYGT), • Development of bi- or multilateral cooperation with major space actors outside Luxembourg.
