On Monday 26th of May, Space Exchange Switzerland (national platform funded by the Swiss Space Office of the SERI) is very fortunate to host the celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the ESA Convention in Lausanne. In 2025, the 50th anniversary of the signature of the ESA Convention (30 May 1975) provides the opportunity to reflect not only on ESA’s past achievements, but also on its future perspectives. Come and join us for this celebration! It will be a wonderful opportunity to discover ESA’s past and future achievements, you will meet major space actors like Josef Aschbacher, ESA’s director general and our new Swiss Astronaut Marco Sieber. We have the honor of having Guy Parmelin, Federal Councillor, address the audience with a brief opening. Hear what the General Director of ESA-Josef Aschbacher has to say about ESA’s 2040 vision and listen to exciting interventions about Inspiration, Science and Exploration, and in space by high-level speakers. Interludes by the Swiss-led troupe The Blackouts will add a special light to the event.
