With the UK contributing 6.5% of the global space market, and ambitions to grow this to 10% by 2030, Space-Comm Expo is where the industry meets, learns, networks and does business.

Supported by key industry associations and influential bodies, Space-Comm Expo showcases the manufacturing supply chain for products, services and solutions supplying commercial enterprises and developments in space.

Wales is on a mission to support the UK’s goal of securing 10% of the space market forecast to be worth £400 billion by 2030 and the Wales Space Strategy provides the framework to support the growth of the sector in Wales. The combination of industry, academic and test infrastructure expertise creates an innovative space ecosystem in Wales that can support the growth of the UK space industry.

Held at the Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre, the Home of Pioneering Spirit, Space Comm Expo brings together the entire sector for two days of face to face business and networking.
