Galileo Services goes Beyond Europe

Established in 2002, the Galileo Services association consists of key European players in the GNSS downstream industry. As the GNSS market is global by nature, Galileo Services continues its expansion with new members from non-European countries. Canadian NovAtel, US-based JAVAD GNSS, dmedia System from Taiwan and SEIKO EPSON from Japan are now members of the non-profit association, which objective is to foster development of technologies and pilot value-added services and applications for the future use of Galileo.

Since the association was opened for non-European members Galileo Services has received requests for membership from all over the world from companies that want to join the representative of downstream industry towards the Galileo Programme. The role of Galileo Services is among other tasks that of an active contributor to the development of future Galileo services and applications, both towards the European GNSS Supervisory Authority - the European public agency in charge of the Galileo Programme, and towards the future Galileo Concessionaire, who will be in charge of deployment, operation and commercial exploitation of the Galileo system.
