Bulgarian micro, small and medium enterprises and research organizations can absorb up to EUR 409,033  for the creation of new space technologies, applications and training programs for space engineering.

The funds are provided in the framework of an agreement ratified this week between the Bulgarian government and the European Space Agency (ESA), the Bulgarian Ministry of Innovation and Growth has reported. The best Bulgarian developments will find application in the activities of the Space Agency. 37 Bulgarian projects have already been approved thanks to the country's membership in ESA. Among them is a dosimeter created by BAS, which measures the cosmic radiation on Mars.
