Advancing commercial space in Europe is a vital component of ESA’s Agenda 2025, and the fast-growing EO sector has an abundance of possibilities that private businesses can capitalise on, from satellites and ground infrastructure to value-added services that address real-world needs with information from space.

All elements of the EO value chain will be addressed, with a focus on businesses, end users, relevant policies, and financial aspects as well as industrial and technical perspectives. The attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the market trends, key drivers and challenges the industry is facing, together with governmental policies, funding opportunities and commercialisation strategies.

Many are predicting that 2024 will bring significant change to the SmallSat market as the broader economic environment brings new insights to the sector. Rapidly deployable, versatile, low-cost payloads however have already reset the once stagnant satellite market. Now informed investors are looking at satellites, and SmallSats in particular, the way they once looked at silicon chips, personal computers and internet startups.

As the competing forces of a changing capital environment are met by a newly minted agile space economy, how will your company thrive in the next epoch of SmallSats?

Working to provide coherent predictions and the personal connections needed to assure your success in 2024, the SmallSat Symposium is excited to invite the space community back to Silicon Valley for our ninth annual event. Join us today and gain the knowledge and tools to assure your success in 2024!
