Supported by the Australian Space Agency, the biannual forum provided the perfect opportunity to stimulate ideas, share information about emerging technologies and discuss industry trends.
The South Australia Space Forum facilitated collaboration among nearly 600 stakeholders in the Australian space sector, while encouraging growth and innovation within the space economy.
The event aimed to stimulate the Australian space ecosystem by:
- Encouraging the exchange of information and promoting the latest industry developments
- Showcasing South Australian capabilities to local and international investors
- Assisting research organisations to identify industry needs and future areas of demand, particularly within STEM pathways
- Promoting commercial application of new research and technologies.
