ESA - Commercial Agent

In 2007 INNOVA has been appointed by the European Space Agency (ESA) the prime contractor of MATISS, the Commercial Agents Network for materials and processes.

ESA has appointed an exclusive Commercial Agents Network with members from three European countries (Germany, The Netherlands and Italy), MATISS, for which INNOVA is the coordinator to tackle the vast area of markets summed up under the term Materials & Processes.

INNOVA’s mission is to promote the industrial exploitation of the International Space station (ISS) for R&D in materials and Processes, hence to market and sell the use of services, resources and facilities that ESA can offer onboard the International Space Station.
