CASSINI Investor Network

CASSINI Investor Network

For Entrepreneurs

Access to finance is crucial for start-ups to enable them to scale up operations and compete in a dynamic space industry. The European Union has a variety of funding options available.

CASSINI-backed start-ups can leverage a dedicated investor network for their equity investment needs and attend matchmaking events organised by CASSINI at Europe’s major tech events.

We offer targeted introductions and attractive networking opportunities with investors eager to support innovative space ventures. Companies interested in these opportunities should contact the CASSINI team or register for a CASSINI Matchmaking event.
