Rome welcomes the 8th CASSINI Hackathon on EU Space for Security & Defence, organised by Fondazione E. Amaldi!

  • 26 November 2024

From November 22 to 24, the 8th CASSINI Hackathon unfolded in Rome, organized by Fondazione E. Amaldi. This vibrant event united innovators, entrepreneurs, and space enthusiasts from across Europe to tackle critical challenges under the theme “EU Space for Security and Defence.” As part of the European Commission’s CASSINI program, this year’s hackathon focused on leveraging European space systems to bolster defence capabilities, cybersecurity, and crisis management.

Prof. Sergio Marchisio had the honor of contributing to the Focus Group on Friday, November 22, held at Sapienza Università di Roma. Joined by a panel of esteemed colleagues, they explored diverse strategies for fostering a secure and sustainable space environment. He was included in the first row of speakers with General Domenico Rossi, Former Undersecretary of Defense, and Ferdinando Dolce, Head of Space Innovation sector at Undersecretariat General of Defense and Member of the Italian Space Agency’s Scientific and Technical Council, and focused on the evolution of international efforts in space security, tracing the progression from proposals for non-legally binding frameworks to initiatives aimed at crafting binding treaties. Over recent decades, such multilateral efforts have expanded, addressing challenges posed by the complex geopolitical landscape and uncovering gaps in the legal architecture, including Article IV of the Outer Space Treaty. These discussions also contextualized NATO’s updated 2022 strategy and aspirations for a unified European defence approach.

Throughout the weekend, hackathon participants immersed themselves in an exciting blend of training, mentorship, and collaborative problem-solving. Teams worked on three pivotal challenges, crafting innovative solutions to enhance Europe’s space security infrastructure. Prof. Marchisio and the OSL – Outer Space Law Team express their congratulations to the winning teams, who earned well-deserved recognition and valuable prizes, including access to the CASSINI Mentoring program and expert coaching from EUSPA to refine and commercialize their groundbreaking ideas!
