In brief, the event shall provide a framework to review a key role of research and innovation for the Copernicus programme.

Participants will learn about the coordinated European approach to maximize the use of Earth Observation products and services to steer resilient and green transition for all Europeans and to safeguard our planet.

These will exemplify the key contributions of the V4-based sector to the European Green Deal and Space Strategy for Europe. Finally, a roundtable discussion with key European EO actors and stakeholders is planned to discuss the current status and future challenges regarding the research and innovation activities for and within a Copernicus programme.
