On 14-15 October, the European Space Agency (ESA) will host the NAVISP Industry Days in Rome, Italy, bringing together the European PNT academic and industrial community to explore the latest opportunities and advancements in Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT) technologies.<\/p>\n
ESA\u2019s Navigation Innovation and Support Programme (NAVISP) aims to cultivate European and Canadian industrial capacities while pioneering the advancement of novel positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) technologies and systems.<\/p>\n
After a record participation at last year’s edition in London, the 6th edition of the NAVISP Industry Days<\/a> offers a unique forum for both established leaders and emerging innovators within the global PNT ecosystem. This edition also marks the 10th year of NAVISP since the start of the programme.<\/p>\n This year\u2019s edition, held under the theme “Between Science and Art”, will take place in the inspiring setting of Universit\u00e0 La Sapienza\u2019s Aula Magna, presided by its iconic mural \u201cItaly between the Arts and Science\u201d of modernist painter Mario Sironi.<\/p>\n “Throughout history, navigation has been considered both as much an art as a science. It is an art because of the creativity and skills required to avoid the dangers of navigation at sea, and it is a science because it relies on instruments grounded in scientific principles,\u201d says Rafael Lucas, Head of ESA’s NAVISP Programme.<\/p>\n \nOver two days, participants will gain insight into the Agency\u2019s NAVISP programme, engage in in-depth discussions, share ideas, and have networking opportunities with key actors shaping the future of PNT. On the second day, the event will focus on unmanned operations, eLoran and other complementary PNT and Indoor PNT.<\/p>\n The event encourages collaboration between well-established companies, SMEs and newcomers across Europe and Canada, welcoming participants from across the entire PNT value chain, from upstream innovators such as satellite manufacturers, PNT equipment developers, and sensor technology providers to downstream companies leveraging these technologies in transformative applications.<\/p>\n Participation is free of charge.<\/p>\n
On the first day, key notes and panels will focus on Resilient PNT, PNT for Ports and Underwater.<\/p>\n
