ESA BIC Czech Republic is looking for space startups that are ready to turn their bold ideas into business success providing €50,000 in non-equity funding and expert support. Whether you are applying space technology to everyday markets or building solutions that can make their way into orbit, this is your chance to shine.

For up to two years, startups receive hands-on mentoring, legal, financial and marketing advice, office space, technical support from ESA  and direct access to international partners and investors through the incubation centre.

“Innovation does not wait, and neither should you. Participating in ESA BIC Czech Republic is not only about obtaining funding. It is about acquiring expertise, credibility and privileged access to ESA’s international network, offering opportunities that open doors far beyond the Czech Republic,” says Michal Kuneš, Project Manager at ESA BIC Czech Republic.

The next application deadline is Friday, 31 October 2025 at 23:59 (CET).

Early consultation with the incubation managers is also highly recommended to help fine-tune business plans and guide startups through the eligibility criteria and application process.

This year’s Czech Space Week will take place from 20 to 26 October 2025, just ahead of the next ESA BIC Czech Republic application deadline. The festival will showcase incubated startups and other key players in the Czech space sector. The public is welcome to attend. Read more information about Czech Space Week here.
