In the digital age, space travel is the key to future technologies such as autonomous driving, Industry 4.0 or Big Data applications. It is indispensable for climate protection and the ability to judge and act in foreign and security policy. The commercialization of space travel, called NewSpace, is a cross-industry driver of growth and innovation.
The Space Forum is jointly organised by ELNET Germany, Federation of German Industries (BDI) and the German Israeli Network of Startups and Mittelstand (GINSUM).
