Space Summit 2026, organised by Experia Events, will bring together international industry leaders and space chiefs in Singapore on 23 February. The event aims to define the next era of orbital commerce as the commercialisation of space technology accelerates. Keynotes will be delivered by leaders from Airbus Defence and Space, and ST Engineering.
The summit arrives at a pivotal moment as the rapid growth of satellite constellations, driven by reduced launch costs and advanced technologies, pushes the sector towards a market-driven phase. Discussions will focus on business models, investment frameworks, and partnership structures necessary to scale activities across the space value chain. Key topics include managing cost pressures, infrastructure readiness, and sustainability.
Panels will delve into structural shifts reshaping the market. Innovations in the launcher business will be discussed by leaders from Agnikul, Equatorial Space, and others, focusing on new, affordable launch systems. The next frontier in the in-space economy will be explored with insights from Infinite Orbits and NASA, examining segments like in-orbit servicing and microgravity manufacturing. The Asia Pacific’s rising market opportunities will also be highlighted, featuring companies such as Addvalue and GomSpace.
The summit will feature a comprehensive programme exploring commercial, regulatory, and industry developments. Dr Tan See Leng, Singapore’s Minister for Manpower, will attend as Guest of Honour. Michael Schoellhorn, CEO of Airbus Defence and Space, emphasised the importance of collaboration and talent development in unlocking the space sector’s potential.
Space Summit 2026 will serve as a neutral platform for international dialogue, with participation from agencies like NASA and the European Space Agency. Limited sponsorship and participation opportunities remain, with the event set to take place at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore.
