The funds are provided in the framework of an agreement ratified this week between the Bulgarian government and the European Space Agency (ESA), the Bulgarian Ministry of Innovation and Growth has reported. The best Bulgarian developments will find application in the activities of the Space Agency. 37 Bulgarian projects have already been approved thanks to the country's membership in ESA.
