The Portuguese Space Agency – Portugal Space together with the AIR Centre is opening the second out of four calls to promote the internationalization of European SMEs developing Copernicus-based products.  

This second call targets European SMEs that use Copernicus and are looking to expand their business to Brazil. A total of 10 SMEs will be selected to participate in a presential event in Rio de Janeiro that will take place on the 29th and 30th of March 2022.

Participation in this initiative will provide unique networking possibilities to European SMEs, allowing them to gain visibility and expand their business to the largest South American country whilst fostering the uptake of Copernicus data by Brazilian entities. 

Supporting this internationalization, Portugal Space and AIR Centre are also contributing so that Africa and South America can take advantage of the countless possibilities offered by Copernicus. Furthermore, satellite images and products generated by the program enable value-added services that positively impact several sectors, like agriculture, forestry, resource optimization, or infrastructure management.
