Measuring the socio-economic impact of ARTES 4.0

The Connectivity and Secure Communications Directorate works to ensure society, businesses and governments can use and harness the potential of space-enabled technologies. We measure the socio-economic impact (SEI) of our ARTES 4.0 (Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems) programme to share how it is having a technological, environmental, social, economic and strategic impact in ESA Member States.

ESA's Directorate of Connectivity and Secure Communications (CSC) promotes the combined use of space-based systems, enhancing the competitiveness of ESA Member States’ satellite communications industries by facilitating the development of advanced technologies and concepts to develop world-class products and services.

To achieve these objectives, we hire the best research, technical, business, administrative, and support staff. We have frequent vacancies at all career phases, from internships to senior management roles, across all our centres.
