Overview

The Australian Space Summit & Awards was back for its second consequetive year at the International Convention Centre Sydney to provide an opportunity to showcase Australia’s space capabilities, from small and large businesses through to educational, government, commercial and industrial sectors.

As part of the Australian Space Data Analysis Facility (ASDAF), nominated for “Business of the Year - SME”, I had the opportunity to fly over to Sydney. This gave me the opportunity to learn more about Australia’s space industry and network with diverse people from academia, defence, engineering and legal.
