2017 ARTES Future Preparation Final Presentation Days

The ARTES Future Preparation (formerly ARTES 1) Final Presentation Days for 2017 took place at ESA ESTEC on Wednesday the 11th and Thursday the 12th of January 2017.

The objective of this annual event is to share the results of recently completed Future Preparation activities with interested parties from across the ARTES participating states. The Final Presentation Days represent a unique opportunity to gain an overview of all recent Future Preparation activities, and discuss them with colleagues from both ESA and across the satellite telecommunications sector.
