Innovative Solutions for Business and Society Based on Earth Observation Data

The Copernicus Masters is designed to support the development of Copernicus-related entrepreneurship by eliciting and rewarding projects and business ideas that make use of Earth observation data primarily generated under the Copernicus programme. The Copernicus Masters 2015 is calling for proposals between 15 April and 13 July 2015 in different categories (“the Challenges“).

Eligibility
Enterprises, scientific institutions, and individuals of legal adult age are entitled to participate in the Copernicus Masters 2015. Applications will be accepted from anywhere in the world.

Prizes
Descriptions of all of the Challenges in the Copernicus Masters 2015 are available here. They include the respective prizes to be awarded in each Challenge and the evaluation criteria that will determine the winning proposal. One winner will be selected by the expert panel of each Challenge. In addition, one overall winner of the competition – the Copernicus Master – will be selected from the winners of all Challenges (except for the winner of the GEO Illustration Challenge). The Copernicus Master will receive an additional grant of EUR 20,000 and a substantial satellite data quota made possible by financial support from the European Commission.
