The European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) is a key European Union funding program designed to bolster economic, social, and territorial cohesion across EU regions. Functioning as a financial body, the ERDF channels investments into infrastructure, job creation, innovation, and sustainable development projects, aiming to reduce disparities between regions. While not directly involved in manufacturing or launch services, the ERDF supports various initiatives related to space, including research and development, technology transfer, and promoting the growth of space-related SMEs, often working in conjunction with other EU bodies and national/regional authorities.
