SUMMARY:5th Italian Space Startup Competition
DESCRIPTION:5th Italian Space Startup Competition\n\n\n16th – 17th March 2024\n\n\nRome\, Italy\n\n\nThe Italian Space Startup Competition (ISSC) is a startup competition whose area of interest is space in all its facets. During the two days of the event\, participants will have the opportunity to interact with experts from the space field and to work in teams\, discussing ideas and shaping them into business cases. The participants will benefit from the support of mentors\, whose backgrounds and expertise are diverse and covering different areas of the space sector. \n\n\n\n\n\nCompetition Goals\n\n\nISSC aims to promote the interest of the young generation in the space business and bring forth the next generation of entrepreneurs. ISSC encourages knowledge sharing and fosters innovation\, providing participants with the necessary backdrop to network\, learn and shape the future.\nThe event is dedicated – but not limited – to new graduates\, students and young professionals who are interested in working in the space sector and are willing to take on a challenge in a business context. The interdisciplinary nature of the event allows people from any background\, be it engineering\, law\, economics or else\, to participate. The competition is open to individuals  or teams (with or without ideas) and startups in the bootstrapping phase (no external funding received).\nParticipants without a team will have the opportunity to join/be matched with existing groups. All participants must be between the ages of 18 and 35. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe event format\n\n\nAfter the end of the registrations\, delegates with no team will be given the opportunity of entering already formed teams. \n\nIn the weeks prior to the event\, all delegates will be given an introduction to the fundamentals of entrepreneurship and effective pitch. This will happen in the form of two webinars with guest experts from the industry and academia. \n\nDuring the two-day event\, the teams will work in groups to develop their idea and shape it into a business case\, with the support of experienced mentors.\nAt the conclusion of the ISSC\, each team will present its idea in front of a jury during a pitch competition. The business ideas may include new technologies\, spin-in or spin-off\, or space data applications. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Here
