    The ESA Investor Network connects investors and financial institutions to companies and ESA programmes to facilitate access to finance

    We make it easy for investors and financial institutions to enter the sector, while helping companies identify funding opportunities. The Network also engages with major European financial institutions, including the European Investment Bank (EIB), helping connect private investment with institutional financing to support scale‑up and long‑term growth.

    How we work

    Provide investors with technical advisory and market insights to support credit, debt and investment decisions from Pre-seed to Series C across all space market verticals.

    Distribute exclusive investment opportunities from ESA BICs, ESA programmes and the External Space Industry to the Investor Network.

    Enable preferential access to investment opportunities, selection boards, pitch competitions, and ESA's extensive network of financial institution partnerships.

    Collaborate with major European institutions (EIB, EIF, EUSPA, EC) to provide streamlined activities to the financial community and the space ecosystem.
