The 4th ESA/CNES Space Cost Engineering Conference will take place in ESA ESTEC (Netherlands) on October 1 and 2.

Registration for our conference is now possible via the conference website. A draft programme covering two full days is also published there.

The conference dinner in the ESTEC restaurant (with live music!) is not included in the registration fee; you can choose this optional event in the registration process.

Do not hesitate to extend this invitation to those around you.

For information, contact M. Van PELT (ESA) or F. MOLL (CNES)

The COST engineering COMmunity OF ExperTs aims to bring French and European players in the field together in an informal and user-friendly way. With a perspective of innovation and creativity, the group aims to address the following topics:

  • Methodology for estimating project costs and pre-projects
  • New tools, databases and capitalization methods
  • Towards new approaches: Design to Cost, feedback from industrial approaches, costs and risk taking 

 

The group is co-animated by CNES and ESA. It regularly organizes events (working groups, visits, workshops and seminars, ...) in face-to-face and/or videoconferencing.

You will find the events already organized in the dedicated menu.
