The Mission

A groundbreaking initiative in France to develop the deep tech sector applicable to the ASD.
 

Initially focused on intensity (3 months) and fundraising (Demo Day), BLAST is now transitioning into a longer-term program aimed at enabling startups to qualify market access more effectively, reach the maturity needed to make a lasting impact, and build strong collaborations within the French ecosystem.

This new ambition brings together the most relevant partners in the Aerospace, Space, and Defense (ASD) sectors, ensuring unmatched quality support. The program is operated by Starburst and Ecole polytechnique and supported by Connect by CNES, ONERA, Avio France, Eutelsat, Innovation Defense Agency, Ile-de-France.

Starburst, École polytechnique, and ONERA are deepening their collaboration, harnessing their collective expertise to empower startups on their journey to success. With the steadfast support of sponsors like Connect by CNES, Avio France, and Eutelsat, BLAST offers unparalleled resources and access to a network of industry leaders, equipping participants with the tools they need to thrive.
