Abstract In 2010, Switzerland initiated national activities, in order “To foster and promote Swiss scientific and technological competences related to space activities”. These measures where implemented by the Swiss Space Office of the State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI/SSO) and the Swiss Space Center was entrusted to ensure the technical implementation and the follow-up. This consists in issuing a “Call for Proposals” every other year, open to all technologies with promising application in the space domain and more specifically in the upstream market in line with the priority axes of the Swiss space policy. Considered as a success, this first initiative was supported in 2013 by the implementation of a “Call for Ideas” targeting early stage technologies. These national measures will be completed in 2016 by the establishment of an ESA Business Incubation Center (BIC). The first results achieved after five years of national activities are very encouraging, success stories are emerging which makes the space industry “one of the most research-intensive and innovative industries in Switzerland” [1].
