International Space Innovation Centre (ISIC)

The International Space Innovation Centre (ISIC) is a British organisation aimed to drive innovation and enterprise, creating new technologies and developing applications and intellectual property for the benefit of the United Kingdom.

It was Launched in May 2011, as a not-for-profit organisation between industry, academia and government. ISIC was established as part of the UK's Space Innovation and Growth Strategy. It has been created at Harwell, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom, alongside the research facility for the ESA. Some of its tasks are to investigate climate change, and the security of space systems.

ISIC also provides a unique European capability with state-of-the-art facilities, including an Operations Centre, Security and Resilience Unit, Visualisation Centre, and Applications Innovation Centre. In addition, we enable access to facilities owned by our member organisations. Access to all these facilities is supported by the world-class expertise available through ISIC.

It is funded partly by the British government, and partly by the industry.

ISIC's vision is to create a positive environment in which government, industry and academia can collaborate to accelerate the development and commercialisation of space technologies and applications, creating growth for the economy :

  • Forge a bridge between space technology and applications sectors
  • Increase competitiveness in a rapidly growing world market
  • Promote open innovation and partnership
  • Provide links to wider capabilities across the UK and internationally
  • Marshal the UK's considerable capabilities for maximum impact
  • Reach out to the broader community and engage with non-space partners to capitalise on applications and services opportunities
