Space Knowledge Summit 2023 | 5 October
What does a'fairer'world look like to you?
Space isn’t all rockets and astronauts. Wherever there are people there are communities and systems to help those communities stay happy, healthy and connected. We need people like you to think about what those communities and systems could be and in thinking about the future we may help solve some real world problems today.
Join us at the first ever Space Knowledge Summit and help shape the future. #BeBold

Why attend?
Equal access to space needs equal access to decision making about the future use of space, the laws to govern and jobs to be created. We welcome participation from non-space and space industries to share ideas and experience. Join us for the first Space Knowledge Summit and help shape the future of space.

Worldbuilding
From Minecraft to Mordor, worldbuilding is not new for writers, gamers and artists. Share what you know with sociologists and urban planners and help pioneer the field of astrosociology.
Can we achieve 100% equality in space jobs?
Share & Connect
What to expect.
The Space Knowledge Summit is made up of two parts: main stage discussions and individual booths in the virtual expo. There is also the opportunity to connect and join ‘speed networking’ sessions.
Virtual Stage
We discuss fresh ideas in space law, social impact and finance. Our mission is to normalise the sharing of knowledge to increase capacity building, widen participation and ensure equal access to space for all.
Virtual Expo
‘Share what you know’, is the heart of the Space Knowledge Summit. Each year we hope to share at least 1,000 case studies and videos to accelerate capacity building in emerging and non-space faring nations.

The founding principle of outer space law is that everyone is entitled to equal access to the benefits of space. But, 95% of countries do not have independent access to space and so not everyone as equal opportunities to access these benefits. We’re looking for new thinking, big ideas and creative minds to share what you know and help shape the future of space. You can present, join a group discussion or maybe share a recorded video. However you choose to get involved, we hope you do. Sign-up for a free virtual expo booth or send us an email with an outline of your talk/idea/discussion. Please note, that we do not pay speakers as we want to keep all registrations free.
