Abstract
I will give an overview of Exoplanet research in the context of the current and next space mission. I will explore the expected exoplanet yield by the GAIA mission and the synergies between GAIA, and TESS, CHEOPS and PLATO. GAIA is expected to discover many planets through astrometry and also a few through transit photometry. GAIA astrometry also allows a better characterisation of the orbits and masses of planetary systems and has had a large impact in the characterisation of the exoplanet host stars. This impacts directly the precision of the derived planetary parameters including those discovered by TESS and in the future PLATO. It also provides valuable information about for candidate validation and it has been used to help select the PLATO field of view.
