At a time when the space industry is at the dawn of a new era marked by strong digitalisation, the rise of AI, the challenges of sustainability, and the ultra-fast emergence of NewSpace, Expleo, with over 50 years of technology and engineering experience, will be presenting its very latest innovations and technological solutions. 

Engineering and technology for a more eco-responsible space industry

Expleo boasts proven expertise in the space sector across many key competencies, including advanced engineering, propulsion, complex satellite systems and nanosatellite design, assembly, test and integration of on-board systems. In December 2023, Expleo launched its own nanosatellite, ENSO (Expleo Nanosatellite for Solar irradiance Observation), which is currently conducting a four-year mission to monitor solar activity and its impact on the Earth’s atmosphere. All solutions developed by Expleo are designed to improve competitiveness and reliability. Furthermore, Expleo supports the sector’s transition to a more responsible future and recently committed to a less polluted space by signing the European Space Agency’s ‘Zero Debris’ charter
