Conference Description

With over 70 nations now having satellites in orbit, space has become a highly competitive arena. Major powers like the USA, Russia, and China are rapidly expanding their military space capabilities such as advanced military satellite technologies and anti-satellite weapons. In addition to these state actors, commercial entities are playing an increasingly significant role. The space domain has become increasingly contested, with industry and governments driving innovation and expanding access to space.

Now in its 7th year, the Space Operations Summit continues to be the premier event for those shaping the future of military space domain. As we move into 2025, the space and defence landscape is becoming increasingly complex. The need for NATO and its allies to invest in robust and resilient space defence strategies is very clear.

Why Attend?

  • Engage with senior UK military and government officials, international space commanders, and leaders in disruptive technologies. This is your chance to influence and play a pivotal role in the development and operations of the military space capabilities;
  • Network with over 150 delegates from across the space domain, including military and government organisations, international partners, the space science and technology community, and industry leaders;
  • Gain insights from a series of impactful presentations and discussions led by Space Commanders, the Ministry of Defence, and other key partners in the sector. Discover strategic plans, operational capability targets, and programme delivery milestones that will shape the space domain.

Topics for 2025

  • Satellite Communication Technologies;
  • Missile Tracking Systems: Enhancing detection and response;
  • Ground Systems in supporting space operations and ensuring mission success;
  • Space Domain Awareness and Space Combat Power;
  • Alliances and Collaboration: The importance of interoperability across systems, nations, and industry to achieve seamless and effective space operations;
  • Agile Supply Chains & Working Through Classification Challenges;
  • Artificial Intelligence and Data Utilisation;
  • Joint Commercial Operations (JCO) encompassing Surveillance Reconnaissance Tracking (SRT), Non-Earth Imaging (NEI), and Cooperative Jamming.

Benefits of Attending

  • Improve understanding of emerging threats such as cyber and physical attacks, and hear how other operators in the space domain are overcoming these through the use of more resilient technologies and increased space domain awareness and tracking;
  • Gain insight to overcome the challenges that can occur when developing critical space capabilities, including satellite communications and PNT systems, and meet with the industry leaders who are providing cutting-edge innovation to expand operations in space and solve these challenges;
  • Get updated on the evolution and future trends of the space domain, enabling you to make informed decisions for space activities and safeguard against future disruption to operations;
  • Examine space not only as an operational domain, but also as an enabler for operations in all other domains, which will lead to improved interoperability and readiness of personnel due to the augmented capability this offers;
  • Create meaningful dialogues with allies and senior military leaders in an intimate environment, which will lead to shared learning and innovation of future space operations.
