About

UCP

EUSPA’s User Consultation Platform (UCP) is a systematic consultation process that involves business and industry leaders, entrepreneurs, service providers, innovators, and other EU Space user communities to express their needs and requirements, share best practices, and present case studies. This year’s event will cover the entire EU Space Programme, including GNSS, EO, and Secure SATCOM.

The 2026 edition will take place in a hybrid format on 26-27 November in Prague and online. The first day will feature nine thematic consultation sessions covering Aviation and Drones, Fisheries and Aquaculture, EU Border and Internal Security, Urban Development and Infrastructure, Raw Materials, Tourism and Cultural Heritage, Timing and Synchronisation, EO Data Access and Processing, and Health. On the second day, a plenary session will present the main outcomes and priorities identified during the consultations, followed by activities dedicated to downstream market opportunities, including demonstrations, booths and networking with users, industry representatives and stakeholders.
