[ EU MISSION // FLIGHT PLAN ]
The movement for European space and technological sovereignty.
The industrialisation of space will not happen without Europeans.
Space Citizen brings together Europeans determined to preserve Europe's place in space and critical technologies. An investors' club to understand, come together and act.
Here is the situation, and your role.
The space and technological revolution is already under way.
Telecommunications, navigation, climate monitoring, security and crisis management: space is already critical infrastructure for our daily lives, often without our realising it. A new economy is being built, now: space in the lead, alongside artificial intelligence, robotics and quantum. The positions taken today will shape the lives of the next generations for decades.
Europe already has capabilities you may not be aware of.
It can launch rockets, build satellites, train engineers the world competes for. Until the mid-2010s, Arianespace held a leading position in the global commercial launch market. Laboratories, industrial companies and a new generation of startups are already building the future.
What is missing is not talent.
It is the fuel.

≈ €300bn
Every year, around €300 billion of European savings are invested outside Europe. What if part of it built Europe instead?
The companies building Europe's future are rarely listed on a stock exchange. For citizens, investing in them remains very difficult.
The capabilities are there. So are the savings. What is still missing is the link between those savings and the companies building Europe's future.
Space Citizen exists to create it: a community of investors that co-invests, transaction by transaction, in European space and DeepTech.
A new European adventure.
For a long time, states wrote Europe's great technological adventures while citizens looked on. Today, critical technologies need every kind of support, and financing innovation can no longer be a matter for states and large investors alone.
Citizens' savings have their place in what Europe is building. Space Citizen exists for this: to support European space and DeepTech, and to form a community that brings more than money.
Don't watch history being written: be part of it.
Apply to the ClubBecome a participant, not just an investor.
At the Club, every member is there to co-invest, transaction by transaction, as they choose. Contributing in other ways is possible, never required.
Three reasons to join the Club:
Act on your convictions
Direct part of your savings towards the technologies you want to see exist in Europe.
Co-invest in unlisted companies
Access, depending on the transaction, co-investments in unlisted companies, alongside experienced space and DeepTech investors.
Make a real contribution to projects
Put experience, a network or a perspective to work for projects that can use them.
Every member, at their own level, has something that money alone does not provide.
Four ways to contribute:
Discover how to contribute
Place a project within its sector
Knowing the trends in your sector, knowing whether a solution already has alternatives, having a principle checked by competent people: this perspective helps a team avoid dead ends, without a technical audit.
Open a door
A relevant introduction (a customer, an industrial partner, a prime contractor) can open a door that is hard to reach alone.
Pass on a job opening
Passing a job opening on to your network, mentioning that a team is hiring: in DeepTech, a few decisive hires often shape a team's trajectory.
Tell your circle about a project
Posting, commenting, sharing a milestone with your network: a startup's credibility is also earned this way.
Everyone freely chooses their level of involvement.
The Club, in practice.
A qualified community
The Club is built gradually from reviewed applications.
Opportunities on a case-by-case basis
Each investment transaction is presented separately to the members concerned.
A dedicated private area
The information and conditions specific to each transaction are available there.
You remain in control
You alone decide, transaction by transaction, whether or not to invest.
The minimum ticket is specified for each transaction. Space Citizen aims to make certain opportunities accessible from €1,000.
Apply to the Club
Successful applicants receive a member number and access to the Club's private area.
We use your email to process your application and to contact you about the Club. We do not sign you up for anything else without your consent.

About
Space Citizen is led by an engineer who spent more than ten years building the European space industry: from the space agency to a major corporation, and on to the startup he co-founded.
Now an investor, he works daily with space and DeepTech funds and startups.

The Club brings together investors who want to co-invest, deal by deal, in European space and DeepTech. They share one ambition: to put Europe back at the heart of the space and technology adventure. The Club is not a fund: everyone remains free to participate, or not, in the opportunities presented to them.
The technologies Europe's autonomy depends on: communicating, navigating, observing, computing, producing, without relying on other countries. Space is at their core, and it drives the others: artificial intelligence, robotics, quantum, components and materials. That is the scope of the Club.
Applications are open to adults with full legal capacity who act on their own behalf. Applying includes accepting the membership terms. Each application is reviewed individually. Admission is not automatic: it is decided separately and communicated by email.
No. Membership is free and creates no financial commitment. You decide freely, deal by deal, whether or not to invest.
European rules govern how investment offers may be presented to the public. At EU level, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) works with national authorities to promote investor protection and consistent supervision. Each opportunity is presented separately to relevant members, in a dedicated space with its documentation, under the rules applicable to its structure. Our ambition is to present rigorously selected European space and DeepTech opportunities.
The Club is not, in itself, an investment product. Under European rules, an expected return cannot be presented in isolation: it must be presented alongside the relevant opportunity, its assumptions and risks. These elements are detailed in the documentation for each opportunity. Be wary of offers that present gains as certain.
The minimum investment is set for each opportunity. Our initial aim is to make some opportunities accessible from €1,000, where their structure allows. Over time, we will seek to lower this threshold, taking into account member demand and the constraints specific to each opportunity.
