Earlier this year, ESA Phi-Lab Netherlands (managed by NL Space Campus and SBIC Noordwijk) welcomed Meandair in collaboration with NLR. We caught up with Meandair’s co-founder Peter Novak to find out about the EO4Contrails project.
ESA BIC incubatees and participants of ESA Phi-Lab NL visited the technical labs of ESA ESTEC to get insights of the innovative research on space tech to be used on ESA’s missions. Representatives from ESA and NLSA also joined the lab tour.
The management of SBIC Noordwijk shares the news that the organisation’s COO, Martijn Leinweber, has resigned. As of June 2026, Rianne van de Poel takes the lead role in operational matters and Jacobo Domingo is appointed ESA BIC Noordwijk manager.
