Facilities

Facilities are a key ingredient for turning ambitious ideas into real innovations. At NL Space Campus, we provide startups, scale-ups, and researchers with the spaces, tools, and community they need to develop, test, and scale their technologies. Thanks to the support of Provincie Zuid-Holland and Gemeente Noordwijk, the campus continues to evolve into a unique environment where knowledge, infrastructure, and entrepreneurship converge.

Integrated Facilities for the European Space Ecosystem

Vision Campus 2035 positions NL Space Campus as a connected European hub, located next to ESA ESTEC, where research, industry, education, and public partners collaborate across the entire space value chain. The campus already offers access to office space, meeting facilities, a maker space at CometLab and advanced technical infrastructure, including thermal vacuum testing (TVAC). In addition, several facilities have been announced or are under development, including a Small Antenna Test Facility, an Optical Ground Station, a satcom fieldlab (Satinsight), Gaia multi-tenant office space, Giotto 69 short-stay apartments, and the Space Impact Centre, complemented by shared amenities such as food trucks.
 
By integrating research and development, testing, manufacturing and scale-up within a single environment, the campus supports faster innovation, reduces development risk and strengthens collaboration. With strong links to European knowledge centres, NL Space Campus contributes to competitiveness, strategic autonomy and long-term economic and societal impact within the European space ecosystem.

3D vision of the campus future

Looking into the future

Space is the domain of human imagination. And so, on a much smaller scale, is building a space campus. NL Space Campus provides space for endless possibilities, for exploration and discovery, for new and growing business ventures.

This is our vision of the campus.

It’s not a map, it’s a direction.
