ARE YOU AN ENTREPRENEUR WITH AN INNOVATIVE, SPACE-RELATED BUSINESS IDEA?
START-UP WITH SPACE!
With the support of the ESA Business Incubation Centre Harwell,
Geraint “Taff” Morgan was able to become the founder of three
start-ups using space technology and know-how. Taff is
a member of The Open University’s Ptolemy instrument
team that in 2014 landed on a comet and
characterised the chemical composition of
the comet nucleus.
At the first TEDxESA he shared how
Ptolemy is now being used “Down to Earth” to sniff out bacteria causing stomach
ulcers and find blood sucking creatures (better known as bed bugs).
The ESA Business Incubation Centres offer extensive support
to entrepreneurs and young start-ups with innovative ideas
and facilitate the use of space technology, systems, services
and know-how for non-space applications.
