DESCRIPTION:Historically\, space has been the purest\, almost exclusive ex
 pression of the most sovereign state policies. The events of World War II 
 and the advent of nuclear power have shaped international relations in the
 ir most strategic aspects. At the turn of the 2000s\, this history\, which
  is still very relevant today\, seemed to have evolved significantly with 
 the emergence of new players and new narratives. The product of an ever-st
 ronger fusion of space and digital technologies\, these new narratives see
 m to indicate a radical shift in the very economics of space activities\, 
 almost in their raison d'être. However\, public activities have themselve
 s undergone a transformation. They have taken this new situation into acco
 unt and have even encouraged it for several decades now. From this point o
 f view\, they remain an essential variable in the new space equation\, Dr 
 Pasco will show.\nDr Pasco is the Director of the Foundation for Strategic
  Research (FRS) in France. He has also been coordinating research on Space
 \, High Technology and Security. In particular\, he is responsible for mon
 itoring US civil and military space affairs and the United States' interna
 tional strategy in the fields of high-tech space (civil and military). He 
 is also in charge of studies on future national and European programmes in
  the space sector\, both in the civil and defence fields. In this capacity
 \, he is the author of numerous reports on civil and military space activi
 ties carried out on behalf of national and European public bodies. Xavier 
 Pasco has been a member of multiple ministerial and inter-ministerial work
 ing groups. He has also just been rapporteur for the report "A space ambit
 ion for Europe" published by the Centre d'analyse stratégique). Dr Pasco 
 participated in several projects related to the "Preparatory Action for Se
 curity Research" launched by the European Commission in 2004\, and within 
 the framework of the 6th and 7th European Research and Development Framewo
 rk Programme (2007-2013). In this context\, he coordinated the European cr
 oss-disciplinary research activity "Conditions for Space Policy and Relate
 d Action Plan Consolidation in Europe" supported by the Executive Research
  Agency of the European Union in 2010-2011. He also coordinated European w
 ork on data policy for the future European space surveillance system as pa
 rt of a study for the European Space Agency (ESA). It also coordinated (20
 11-2012) the study on the future European ground segment for earth observa
 tion for defence and security purposes for the European Defence Agency (ED
 A).\nThe talk will last 30 minutes followed by 30 minutes of Q&A.\nRegistr
 ation will close two hours before the event begins\n \n\nhttps://indico.b
