Space Industry Unites For New Annual Space Commerce Conference

SpaceCom Will Explore The Business Of Space This Time Next Year

SpaceCom, the Space Commerce Conference and Exposition, unveiled a ground-breaking initiative uniting space and business industry leaders for a new event convening November 17-19, 2015 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas.

Supported by NASA's Johnson Space Center and taking a distinct focus on exploring the business of space, SpaceCom is designed to catalyze the economic development of space, the creation of new business models to support that development, and the application of space technologies across important industry sectors of the global economy.

The SpaceCom Advisory Board is led by Dr. Ellen Ochoa, Director, NASA Johnson Space Center, and is comprised of senior executives from organizations driving the rapidly-emerging space commerce community, including Boeing, Lockheed Martin, NanoRacks, XCOR, GE, Shell, Texas Medical Center, Satellite Applications Catapult, NASA Ames Research Center, and vital Houston-area stakeholders. Academic advisors from Rice University and the University of Houston are also participating to create a one-of-a-kind industry exchange.

"The impact of space commerce is already being felt across the economy, as businesses in industry sectors such as medical, energy, communications, manufacturing, and transportation see bottom-line benefits from new space technologies and exploration—creating unprecedented opportunities to develop new partnerships and business relationships across the aerospace eco-system, and to expand the industry as a whole," said Ellen Ochoa, NASA's Johnson Space Center director and SpaceCom advisory board chairman. "I look forward to the ideas and innovations that will emerge from the discussions and presentations shared at the event."

The convention's organizers say SpaceCom will offer a rich attendee experience, comprised of a three-day conference program exploring the application, business, technology and collaboration issues related to the commercialization and development of space. The conference will be surrounded by a vibrant technology exposition, featuring interactive demonstrations from leading companies across the emerging space commerce community. "No other event facilitates a cross-industry convergence like SpaceCom," said Robert E. Harar, chairman and CEO of National Trade Productions, Inc. "If you're involved with the latest product innovations, industry research, or market advancements in this emerging sector — or you're interested in getting information and building relationships that can help you implement these ideas into your business for increased growth and profitability — SpaceCom is the place to be."
