ABOUT US

GOVERNING BODY

ACCESS.SPACE was registered by its three founders, Elisabeth Bonnardel-Azzarelli, Dr. Tony Azzarelli, Christian Frhr. von der Ropp, in the UK in March 2019 as company limited by guarantee and intended to be not-for-profit.

​

ACCESS.SPACE is currently owned by its founders and run according to its articles of association. The structure and running of the company activities is governed by the corresponding organs created through the company byelaws.

​

Such would include a board headed by a chairman which will then nominate a president who in turn will set up steering committees and sub-groups for various tasks.

​

Should the need arise country chapters can be created which will be linked to ACCESS.SPACE by an “inter-agreement” governing the relationship between the entities.
