The EU Global Action on Space is organising a one-day event in Dakar, Senegal, on satellite-based connectivity opportunities for collaboration with Africa.
The objective of the event is to underline the importance of cooperation between the EU and Africa in the space domain, as well as to present the opportunities for secure, effective and satellite-based connectivity that can be made available to Africa through the IRIS² programme.
The event aims at fostering meaningful discussions and networking opportunities between different institutional and industry stakeholders from the EU and African space ecosystems, both during and following the dedicated sessions.
