Portugal's Centro 2030 has launched a €5 million funding initiative aimed at supporting business investments in the space sector, particularly for micro and small enterprises. Managed by the Regional Coordination and Development Commission of the Centre (CCDRC), the program focuses on enhancing collaboration between businesses and the scientific community in both DownStream and UpStream activities. This effort seeks to stimulate economic growth and job creation in the region, which currently has few specialized companies in the space industry.
