Creotech Instruments to build national satellite constellation CAMILA

Creotech Instruments S.A., a leading manufacturer of satellites, satellite systems and components, has signed a landmark agreement with the European Space Agency (ESA) for the CAMILA (Country Awareness Mission in Land Analysis) project. The contract is worth nearly €52 million. 

Under the contract, Creotech will build a national constellation of at least three observation satellites, develop ground infrastructure, launch satellites and comprehensively manage the space mission. 

The contract signing ceremony took place on April 15, 2025, at the Royal Castle in Warsaw, during the 3rd ESA Security Conference organized by the European Space Agency. 

In the CAMILA project, Creotech Instruments SA is the prime contractor for a system consisting of three observation satellites and a ground segment providing satellite control and satellite data processing. 

The company will execute the contract in cooperation with leading companies of the Polish space sector, i.e. subcontractors that have many years of experience in cooperation with ESA. 

The national satellite constellation was commissioned by the Ministry of Development and Technology, which selected the European Space Agency to implement and manage the tender. 

The CAMILA project will be implemented from April 2025 to December 2027. 

The National Earth Observation Project CAMILA (Country Awareness Mission in Land Analysis) program is the result of an agreement signed in October 2023 between the Ministry of Development and Technology and the European Space Agency. It envisages the construction of a full satellite system based to the maximum extent on Polish technologies.
