The second edition of the PhiWeek Bootcamp has just come to an end. Hosted by the European Space Agency (ESA) and Pi School in the course of the PhiWeek (6-10 September 2019), the goal of the event was to explore the scope of Earth Observation data by non-space industries by example through an industry or company relevant challenge, set by the official challenge partner.

Do you think you have what it takes to solve a big industry challenge using earth observation data? Apply now to join an intensive 5-day action-packed design sprint to prototype a solution, test it on real users and present to a jury. 

Following the great success of the PhiWeek Bootcamp, we are pleased to showcase the highlights of the event through a new video and a summary report. 38 participants from over 10 countries showed the high international resonance. For many participants, this cultural diversity contributed to the success of the event and to the development of innovative and groundbreaking business ideas.

As 2018 draws to a close and the festivities begin, our offices will close from 24th December 2018 until 7th January 2019. We take this opportunity to wish our network of customers, suppliers and partners a very happy and smooth entry into the new year 2019. We use this time also to reflect on our activities over the past year, demonstrating the wide range of services we offer across the many projects we have worked on.

On the occasion of the ESA Φ-week, Design & Data GmbH is organising a Bootcamp on behalf of the European Space Agency (ESA) for aspiring entrepreneurs supporting the development of innovative business ideas using Earth Observation (EO) from space to address some of the information needs of the food and energy sectors.

Design & Data produced a number of informative videos to showcase the Copernicus services implemented by ECMWF at the European State of the Climate event in April. The aim was to inform the challenges of climate change and the vital role that Copernicus data play in mitigating and adapting to the effects of our warming planet. The event attracted a diverse audience ranging from MEPs to industry, policymakers, scientists and media.

From 11 to 13 November 2018, the European Space Agency (ESA) invites you to Frascati (Rome), Italy for the 1st Φ-Week Bootcamp. Organised by Design & Data for ESA, the aim is to generate new space startups using earth observation (EO) data linking to the food and energy sectors.

During April 2018, Copernicus and its services implemented by ECMWF were hosted at a high-level event at the European Parliament in Brussels. Design & Data worked with Copernicus ECMWF in the organisation of the event and to develop a number of media-related materials to communicate the impact and benefits for service users and European citizens.

Following the great success of the first INNOspace Weekend, we are pleased to show the highlights through a new video about the startup event and a summary report. The high-energy and dynamic event provided an international mix of participants with the tools they needed to initiate their own startup idea.

The first INNOspace Weekend was a great success. 65 participants attended from over 17 countries and a mix of backgrounds. For many, this cultural and interdisciplinary diversity contributed to the success of the event and to the development of many innovative and groundbreaking business ideas.
