The Space for Business program offers a unique opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of the rapidly growing space industry. Designed by Nova School of Business and Economics, in collaboration with the University of St. Gallen and Rotterdam School of Management and supported by ESA, this program blends academic rigor with practical insights to help you navigate the complexities of the space economy. You'll explore essential topics such as space economics, policy, and innovation, all while learning directly from experts and industry leaders.
This program is ideal for professionals who are eager to tap into the potential of the space sector. Through a combination of engaging in-person sessions, flexible online learning, and hands-on projects, you'll develop the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in this dynamic field. Whether you're already part of the space industry or looking to enter it, the Space for Business program will equip you with the tools to drive your career forward in this exciting frontier.
An amazing inside into strategies and business models from inside and outside the space bubble. Analysing other technical or IT related business successes and failures helped me to understand the special needs of the Space Ecosystem.
Having a programme at three renounced universities and ESA further strengthens the educational value with the different expertise and also cultural aspects of each location and country, making it a wonderful programme at wonderful locations. I highly recommend the programme to any space professional interested in or facing the New Space developments and what this will and could mean for their company or business.
A fantastic journey across multiple dimensions of entrepreneurship in the New Space. The unvaluable teachers and companions, as well as the outstanding locations, made the experience truly unforgettable.
