Lead the Conversations That Move Space Forward

You are not just building the future of space. You are shaping what gets prioritized, funded, and operationalized next.

This is your opportunity to step forward and lead the discussions that define what comes next across civil, defense, and commercial space.

Submit your presentation by MAY 15, 2026 and take the stage in front of the people who advance the space economy.
 


 

Why This Stage Matters

This is where business actually happens
92% of attendees report conducting business onsite, from first meetings to active deals and partnerships.

You are surrounded by decision-makers, not spectators

Attendees include NASA, U.S. Space Force, program offices, primes, and emerging commercial leaders actively advancing space capabilities.

  • 2,200+ companies represented
  • Strong presence from government and defense organizations
  • Attendees directly influence or make purchasing decisions
Networking here leads to real outcomes
  • 80%+ attend specifically for networking and partnerships
  • Nearly 95% rate the ability to connect as strong
  • Meetings, introductions, and partnerships happen in real time

This is not a passive conference. It is an active business environment.

Who You Will Be In Front Of

You are not presenting to a generic audience. You are engaging with:

  • NASA leadership and program teams
  • U.S. Space Force and defense stakeholders
  • Commercial space companies and primes
  • Investors and emerging innovators

This is one of the few environments where civil, defense, and commercial stakeholders are all in the room at the same time.

  • NASA
  • U.S. Space Force
  • National Space Council
