Evaluation of Danish Industrial Activities in the European Space Agency (ESA)

About the publication

Evaluation of Danish Industrial Activities in the European Space Agency (ESA) – Assessment of the Economic Impacts of the Danish ESA-Membership.

Denmark has been a member of the European Space Agency (ESA) since 1975. Danish universities and Danish industries participate in all major areas of space research and development of space technologies.

In order to focus national priorities in the space area the Danish Agency for Science, Technology and Innovation initiated an evaluation of the Danish Space effort. A consultancy company looked into the results and spin-off of the Danish industrial and technological participation in ESA programmes. An international peer review panel was asked to evaluate the quality of the Danish space research.

This publication encompasses the evaluation of Rambøll Management of the industrial activities, economic impact and spin-off effect of the Danish ESA-membership.
