Innovation Day 1

PITHIA-NRF organizes the First Innovation Day on Tuesday 21-06-2022, aiming to make users from SMEs and the aerospace sectors aware of the PITHIA-NRF concept, the expected results, and the possibility to use the nodes for developing projects on validation and calibration of new instrumentation.

The event will be held in Rome and it will be hybrid. The online participation will be guaranteed using an event management software. The local organizer is SET.

WHAT IS PITHIA-NRF?

PITHIA-NRF (Plasmasphere Ionosphere Thermosphere Integrated Research Environment and Access services: a Network of Research Facilities) is a Horizon 2020 project paving the way to new business practices and technological development in the near-Earth and upper atmosphere domains through excellent science. In doing so, PITHIA-NRF wishes to mitigate the adverse effects of upper atmosphere phenomena that pose scientific, operational, and societal challenges.
