Fishing is vital for global food security but faces major challenges such as illegal fishing, overfishing, pollution, climate change, and weak traceability. New regulations will digitalise the sector, generating large volumes of vessel data that, when combined with space technologies, can improve monitoring, sustainability, enforcement, and safety.
The call seeks teams developing commercially viable space-based solutions (using SatEO, SatNav, SatCom, etc.) to address these challenges, offering zero-equity funding, technical support, and ESA network access.

FIRST! Simulation and Intelligence Invitation to Tender
Organised by:
ESA
FIRST! has announced an Invitation to Tender (ITT) that aims to de-risk disruptive technologies related to simulation intelligence for future space transportation in Europe, with a high commercial interest. The objective is to reach TRL 4-5 by software verification in a relevant environment such as breadboard testing.
FIRST! is an initiative with ESA’s programme for future space transportation, FLPP. Its goals are to identify innovative and promising technology disruptors benefitting future European space transportation and to accelerate their derisking through rapid prototyping and testing.
