Originally Kvarken Space Center was established in a project KvarkenSpaceEco, that was financed by EU Interreg Botnia-Atlantica program.
The project consortium consisted of 10 universities and research institutes from Finland and Sweden.
Since the conclusion of the project, the Kvarken Space Center has served as an umbrella for all space-related activities at the University of Vaasa.
Kvarken Space Center is hosted by University of Vaasa and its near-Earth space experts.
