The 2025 edition of Innovation Day is a continuation of previous editions. In particular, it will provide an opportunity to look back at our research and technology activities. This year’s theme is « Space, Innovation and Exploration ».
Throughout the event, presentations will address different facets of exploration in the space sector, with a round table discussion at the end of the day involving institutional, industrial and societal representatives.

Exploration is naturally at the heart of space research programmes (exploration of the universe, conquest of space, etc.). However, many other areas are being explored as they emerge, including technological innovation, the environment and biodiversity, and the exploration of knowledge and skills.

A special area has been set aside to showcase the activities of start-ups and encourage contacts during the day.
