SGAC Montenegro

National Points of Contact Montenegro

Montenegro is an emerging space nation in Southeast Europe, with a rapidly developing ecosystem focused on education, research, and international collaboration.

In 2025, Montenegro reached a historic milestone with the successful launch of its first satellite, “Luča” (1U CubeSat), marking the country’s official entry into the space sector. This achievement has significantly increased national awareness and institutional interest in space technologies.

The development of the space sector is primarily driven by independent initiatives, academic engagement, and international partnerships, creating a strong foundation for future growth and integration into the global space economy.

SGAC activities in Montenegro are currently in an early stage of development. While no formal SGAC-led programs have been fully established yet, there is a growing interest among students and young professionals in participating in international space-related initiatives.

The National Point of Contact is working on strengthening local engagement, raising awareness, and creating opportunities for Montenegro to become more actively involved in SGAC programs and global events.

We regularly organize informal events to bring our community together. These events are great opportunities to network, share ideas, and collaborate on projects.
