SpaceTech 2026: The Space Innovation Ecosystem
Explore what it takes to turn research into impact – how early-stage concepts become startups, how teams secure funding and partnerships, and how academic innovation fits into the broader space industry.
Join us for SpaceTech 2026, AeroAstro’s annual conference exploring the present and future of space technology.
This year’s theme, “The Space Innovation Ecosystem,” explores what it takes to turn research into impact – how early-stage concepts become startups, how teams secure funding and partnerships, and how academic innovation fits into the broader space industry.
Prof. David Miller will deliver the morning keynote, followed by a celebration of Prof. Miller’s Space Systems Lab, featuring a panel of SSL alumni.
The conference will feature a SpaceTech Expo and networking hour, along with tables and demos running throughout the day; student lightning talks with audience judging and awards; and panels with academic and industry leaders.
