Space-Comm Confirms Plans For Europe’s Most Influential Space Industry Event

Global policymakers and business leaders will gather at Space-Comm Expo Europe, taking place on March 4-5 at ExCeL London. Space-Comm Expo Europe will welcome over 5,400 delegates, 250 exhibitors and 200 speakers from over 50 countries, with inspirational speakers and cutting edge technology, exploring new opportunities to accelerate the future of the European space industry.

In the UK and across Europe, space has never been more fundamental to security and modern economies with space infrastructure vital to defence, communications, navigation, finance, energy and emergency response. In the UK the sector is valued at £18.6 billion to the UK economy, with the European Space Agency (ESA) confirming a budget of €22.1 billion from 2026-28, and a global industry valued at an estimated $1 trillion by 2030.

Space-Comm Expo will take place against the backdrop of the UK Space Agency (UKSA) merging in to Department of Science, Innovation and Technology, the announcement this week of Dr Paul Bate stepping down as CEO, and Elon Musk’s SpaceX merger with xAI to create the world’s most valuable private company.
