UK Space Cluster Network: SME Innovation Showcase

Hear from a selection of innovative space SMEs and the team that delivered the UK Space Agency’s Space Ecosystem Commercialisation Programme (SECP) at 10.30am on Thursday 5^th March at Space Comm, London Excel, South Gallery 17.

This innovative programme has helped companies across the country to access rapid R&D grants alongside expertise and support from their local space cluster to develop new technology for the space market.

Join this session to hear from five of the companies about the new products they’re bringing to market, as well as how the UK’s space cluster network collaborated with the UK Space Agency to pilot a new approach to rapid commercialisation funding programmes.

Specific location at Space Comm to be confirmed. Booking is not required for this particular event (although tickets are required for Space-Comm Europe).
