The Journey
We are proud to present the fourth edition of our SPACEtalks event, a space inspired conference with a commercial focus, taking place at Harwell Campus in partnership with the Science & Technology Facilities Council, in 2023, and virtually for a wider audience.
Bringing together the brightest minds in the industry, government experts and industry professionals, SPACEtalks expects to hold powerful presentations and discussions regarding space tech and the future of the industry.
Designed for aerospace, related industry professionals, decision-makers at aerospace, commercial organisations, start-ups, governmental agencies and academia, SPACEtalks is a one-of-a-kind space tech event with thought-provoking discussions about space R&I and current trends, whilst providing the opportunity to network in person in this cutting-edge industry.
SPACEtalks will be taking place at the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus.
