Oct 13, 2017 at 21:14 comment added armatita I didn't say otherwise. I was not arguing against your answer. Just adding a bit more of relevant information. (+1) As for ESA and ECMWF I should have explained better. The problem I foresee might happen is specifically with Galileo. It is a project commissioned to ESA by the EU and, as far as I know, there is still no agreement in place about letting Galileo funding go outside the EU.
Oct 13, 2017 at 19:17 comment added Royal Canadian Bandit @armatita: The Banking and Medicine agencies are EU agencies which happen to be physically located in the UK. After Brexit, the EU still needs them, but they have to move somewhere else, hence the costs. AFAIK there is no need and no significant demand for the UK to leave non EU agencies like ESA.
Oct 13, 2017 at 16:39 comment added armatita There are already several bids for those agencies, and one has to wonder if eventually other organizations (non-EU) will eventually loose support from the member states in favor of an EU based institution. I'm thinking of examples such as ECMWF and all the multimillionaire contracts depending on ESA.
