On January 24th and 25th, ESPI was proud to participate in the 15th European Space Conference, hosted by Business Bridge Europe in Brussels. This yearly event brings together hundreds of stakeholders from the European space sector and beyond, to discuss the key topics in the European space landscape, as well as the priorities and challenges that policy makers face in the coming years. This year’s conference placed a special focus on new geopolitical, economic, industrial, and technological realities that Europe is facing, and explored how space can be used to address these challenges. ESPI’s role in the conference included moderating six sessions that looked at the future of the European space ecosystem, space exploration, international cooperation, space innovation, and space traffic management.
