Ineco actively participated in the event "Towards the 2025 ESA Ministerial Conference", held on July 7th an 8th in Seville with the aim of informing the Spanish space ecosystem about the proposal that the European Space Agency (ESA) will present at its next Ministerial Conference, scheduled for November in Bremen, Germany.

The event, of a technical and strategic nature, brought together representatives from the industry, technological centres, the scientific community, and institutional users to analyse the opportunities of the new ESA programme funding cycle. The day offered a comprehensive overview of the mandatory and optional programmes, including PRODEX, navigation, secure connectivity and communications, human and robotic exploration, Earth observation, or space transport, among others.

Carlos Joaquín Hernando, Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania  Aviation Account Deputy Directorate Manager at Ineco, participated in a round table where he highlighted the role of Ineco as a significant player in the aerospace value chain, emphasising its technical expertise and ability to integrate user solutions in highly demanding environments. His participation in the various debate sections, especially in the one dedicated to services and users, allowed him to highlight the company's strategic vision in the application of space technologies to infrastructure and sustainable mobility projects.

As part of its commitment to the development of the space sector, Ineco works closely with the Spanish Space Agency (AEE, in Spanish) providing specialised technical support to the Directorate of Users, Services and Applications. This collaboration translates into support for key initiatives that seek to enhance the strategic use of space capabilities in areas such as connectivity, Earth observation, and security, supporting decision-making and the definition of public policies.
