Software Defined Space Conference

About the event

Software is transforming how we use and benefit from space assets, enabling us to predict and visualise future demands while connecting service providers and users more effectively.

Today, the growing value of space technologies is driven by advances in software and connectivity. As the space sector entered a new era in 2022, cyber security became essential for ensuring resilient services and sustainable growth.

That is why SDSC focuses on two key areas: software development and cyber security for space technologies. The conference aims to raise awareness of their potential, explore commercialisation opportunities, and strengthen the global space community.
