The Space Network and community is growing at Network & Drinks
This time, we had a special edition with almost fifty per cent new faces! That meant loads of opportunities to grow your network, which is our purpose: stimulate, facilitate and connect. And we thank you all for making our new director Marc Sandelowsky feel welcome in the ecosystem!
Three pitches this time:
4F.Studio - Winner of the Light Challenge 2021 with The Lighthouse.
4F.STUDIO is a future-thinking design practice that aims to combine nature and technology responsibly. Working independently and cooperatively with companies and academic institutions, they create installations, mixed-media sculptures, interactive experiences and sustainable products.
The Light Challenge challenges new generations to work with industry and government to come up with innovative concepts for lighting. With the theme 'Glowing Nature', the 2021 edition focuses on innovations in sustainability, health, use of urban greenery and local energy utilisation at micro level. The winning project is The Lighthouse by 4F.The studio is a bioreactor that grows algae at night by reversing the day/night cycle. Thus, it is used as street lighting, while making optimal use of 'residual' light for algae photosynthesis

They’ve been working on the validation and qualification of satellite integration, batteries, solar array wings and payloads.
