The first edition of the ECSECO Space Economy Days took place on January 16 and 17, 2024, at the ESA headquarters in Paris, in a hybrid format and reserved for members. The event brought together international experts to explore the definition and measurement of the space economy. The first day covered global approaches (OECD, Euroconsult, Bryce), national (UKSA, CSA), and sectoral (EARSC) economic assessment methods, followed by a networking session. The second day continued with contributions from EUSPA and ESPI on markets and private investments, before broadening the discussion to the economic impacts of space through studies by London Economics and a presentation by know.space on data use by decision-makers. The event concluded with a presentation by ESA and a networking lunch.
