Held every two years, the UK Space Conference brings together the space community to focus on positioning the UK as a global leader in this fast growing sector.
This event is unique in bringing together science, industry and policy makers in one forum. The conference enables cross-fertilisation of ideas and communities, bringing together organisations that are involved in, or benefit from space research, services and technology.
The conference provides:
- a platform for major ministerial announcements concerning space
- the latest plans and developments from industry
- an opportunity for researchers to share ideas and seek collaboration
- inspiration for students and the opportunity to meet with professionals
- a discussion on the UK Space Agency’s future priorities with the whole sector
The two-day conference is a vital staging post in the 20-year strategy to capture 10 per cent of the global space market, which is forecast to be worth at least £400bn by 2030.
