In the rapidly and constantly evolving technological landscape, companies are driven to adopt increasingly advanced and data-driven digital infrastructures.
According to a recent report by Global Market Insights (GMI), investments in digital infrastructure are expected to grow from $90 billion in 2020 to $120 billion by 2027. Simultaneously, the demand for next-generation services and devices, such as 5G and smart technologies, is expected to exceed $50 billion in the next five years.
In this context, the new call "Space for Infrastructure: Digital Infrastructure" launched by ESA seeks innovative space applications and services with high market potential to support and enhance the digital infrastructure sector.

It is worth noting that, in the context of the ESA call, "digital infrastructure" refers to the set of physical and virtual technologies such as computers, storage, networks, applications, and IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS platforms.
