The ACCESS programme

The new ACCESS programme is designed to accelerate the commercialisation and competitiveness of European industry in the space and non-space sectors. Its purpose is to ensure that European businesses benefit from the growth, innovation and dynamism brought by the commercialisation of space.  It offers support to all types and sizes of companies, ranging from start-ups to established players, across multiple sectors.

Whether you are a space-sector start-up looking to develop your company, or an established business with a brilliant idea on how to use space technology, ESA's ACCESS programme can help you succeed.

ACCESS is structured around two key elements, both with a long and successful record in supporting European business – ScaleUp, and Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS).

Each element has a set of targeted components and together they cater for a wide range of different business needs.
