Its founding has received written supported by the Republic of Cyprus, the European Space Agency (ESA), the Department of Electronic Communications of the Deputy Ministry of Research, Innovation & Digital Policy, which is responsible for the national space strategy and ESA cooperation and the Cyprus Ministry of Defence.
CSIA embodies both a personal and national mission: to highlight Cyprus’s capabilities, empower local innovators and demonstrate that even small nations can lead in advanced technology sectors.
Guided by three pioneering women, the Cyprus Space Industry Association aspires to be more than just an industry association: it aims to serve as a strategic driver for Cyprus’s space ambitions. Through close cooperation with the national government and relevant authorities, the Association ensures that the voices of researchers, innovators and other organizations are represented in policy-making, funding and strategic planning, while also promoting equal representation of its members in European and international organizations.
Through these connections, CSIA encourages cross-border collaboration and aligns Cypriot capabilities with international standards and global opportunities.
