The 2021
SmallSat & Space Access Summit will convene members of the DoD, IC, and space industry to address the role small satellite capabilities play in realizing critical national security goals. Senior leaders will discuss how these
SmallSat technologies can be leveraged to fulfill urgent defense, scientific, and commercial needs. Attendees at the Summit will have the unique opportunity to hear from leading US Government officials about ensuring undeterred space access, improving satellite technologies, advancing launch capabilities, and the future national hybrid space architecture.
Current Health and Safety ProtocolsTopics of Discussion:
- Rapidly Deploying Small Satellite Capabilities to Meet Joint Operational Requirements
- Implementing a Resilient Hybrid Space Architecture
- Leveraging Small Satellites to Gather Data and Enable the Effective Monitoring of Emerging Crises, National Security Priorities, and Scientific Missions
- Efforts to Improve Launch Capabilities and Broaden Space Access
- Integrating Commercially Developed Technology to Deliver Capabilities to the US Space Force
- Integrating Commercial Imagery to Support National Security
- Strengthening the US Commercial Space Economy
- Balancing Public Safety with Innovation in the Commercial Space Environment
Why You Should Attend This Summit:
Historically, satellites have been massive in size and expensive to both develop and launch. In the past, this has limited both flexibility in and access to space. Today, the US has turned its attention toward the advancement of small satellites, which are often more cost-effective and pragmatic. The advantages of small satellites are not just their drastically reduced cost, but also their ease of launch, mission flexibility, and ability to strengthen overall capability in the space domain.
The 4th Annual
SmallSat and Space Access Summit will address the development of
SmallSat technologies and the challenges of achieving successful vehicle launches. Speakers will address the policy, acquisition, and technical development of space capabilities aimed at improving ease of access to space and overall US superiority in the space domain - in the context of both national defense and scientific exploration. Furthermore, this event will highlight the role of the space industry and commercial sector in furthering reliable space access and efforts to develop a national hybrid space architecture using small spacecraft in proliferated LEO.
Speakers from across the DoD, IC, Federal Agencies, and commercial sector will share their insights into the future direction of
SmallSat applications, the challenges of fielding
SmallSat constellations, advancements in capabilities, barriers to successful launches and the role industry plays in progressing US space superiority. Speakers from across the DoD, IC, Federal Agencies, and commercial sector will share their insights into the future direction of satellite technologies and the challenges of fielding
SmallSat constellations. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to engage with senior leaders about recent changes to the national space enterprise and current critical capability gaps.
Our team specializes in the extensive research and development of our Summits' content and focus areas.
