Presentations: Workshop Promoting Applications using the HYLAS 1 Satellite

Avanti and ESA are offering an opportunity to exploit capacity on the HYLAS 1 satellite for applications projects that apply for the agency’s ARTES 3-4 and ARTES 20 programme lines.

Application projects should develop and then trial a satellite-based application for an extended period with real users in order to gather feedback and refine the product before commercial launch.
