capabilities can provide fast, continuous, reliable, and globally available
services for situational awareness. Frontex is inviting industry to share the
latest technological developments and innovative space-based solutions that
could be used for efficient border management.
The upcoming event will be an opportunity to present the latest
advancements and innovations in the following areas:

What are Industry Days?
Industry Days are a platform to interact and engage with experts from the European Border and Coast Guard community. The goal is to create a forum where participants can freely discuss the proposed technological innovations.
The Industry Days will be held in an online format which will host engaging presentations and dynamic discussions, alongside an interactive digital exhibition platform. Each participating entity will be granted a 30-minute slot; during this time a presentation, Q&A session, and collaborative discussions will be held.
