Fidamc took part in the latest edition of SmallSat Europe en Amsterdam, one of Europe’s leading events for the small satellite ecosystem, space constellations and emerging technologies applied to the space sector. The event brought together leading companies, space agencies, technology centres and specialist start-ups that are driving the transformation of the European space industry.
The fair has established itself as a strategic meeting point for analysing the main challenges that will shape the future of the space sector, particularly in the field of small satellites and next-generation constellations. During the various conferences and technical meetings, key issues relating to global connectivity, orbital sustainability and the evolution of European industrial capabilities were addressed.
Among the most prominent topics was the need to reduce latency in data transmission, one of the major challenges associated with the growth of low-Earth orbit satellite constellations. The expansion of services linked to telecommunications, Earth observation and defence demands increasingly faster, more efficient and autonomous systems.
The event also highlighted the development of lighter and stronger space structures, capable of improving the performance of satellite platforms and optimising both energy consumption and launch costs. In this context, advanced composite materials and new manufacturing technologies are playing an increasingly important role within the space value chain.
Spatial sustainability
Another key area of discussion was space sustainability. Various experts and international organisations emphasised the importance of promoting solutions for de-orbiting, extending the service life of spacecraft, and the responsible management of space debris to ensure the future viability of in-orbit operations.
During the event, the European Space Agency (ESA) also highlighted the need to foster industrial consortia capable of providing distinctive solutions for space, with a special mention of the defence sector and the importance of procurement as a tool for strengthening European technological sovereignty.
In this context, Fidamc continues to position itself as a key technology partner in the development of advanced composite materials, lightweight structures and innovative manufacturing processes for space applications.
Attending SmallSat Amsterdam reinforces Fidamc’s commitment to innovation, international collaboration and the development of key technological capabilities for the future of European space.
