Global Space and Technology Convention 2022
Abstract
The Global Space & Technology Convention (GSTC) is an annual event that promotes thought leadership, collaboration, innovation and invention in the Space and related industries. From its humble beginnings, GSTC has grown to having close to 1000 delegates in 2020 right before COVID-19 engulfed the world. Amidst the pandemic, GSTC 2021 took on a brand-new hybrid format and attracted 500 delegates between its workshops and conference. With speakers from all over the globe, the thought-provoking presentations and panels garnered as much or more interest from our delegates. GSTC 2022 will be the 14 th iteration of the convention, happening from February 8 th to 10 th 2022. A voracious range of topics will be discussed during this convention including Earth Observation, Cyber Security, Traffic Management, New Space Systems & Technology and more. These discussions will revolve around the latest developments in their field, current & future demands, challenges, research & solutions, disruptive technologies and the possibilities that lie ahead. Hence the main theme of GSTC 2022 will be “Future World; Endless Possibilities”. Similar to previous GSTCs, GSTC 2022 is expected to be supported by industry players from all over the globe. GSTC 2022 will continue to play a vital role in connecting the South-East Asia space market to the rest of the world. It will also act as a platform for industry players, academia and government agencies to explore collaborative opportunities that may lead to new research, innovation and invention in the space & related sectors. The space sector has been the pinnacle of science and engineering. The scientific developments that arise from research & development in this sector has led to some of the most groundbreaking technologies that are used in all other industries today. From new types of baby food to the latest portable computer used by soldiers in the field, these technologies were by-products of the space race. Today we are seeing the beginnings of another potential space race as companies silently compete for Mars and the startup numbers in the space sector are higher than ever before without signs of slowing down anytime soon. GSTC 2022 will act as the platform to enable, support and exhibit the embodiment of the very spirit that took us to the Moon and one day to Mars. Through these initiatives we hope to see developments in multiple sectors including surveillance, space-based traffic management, imaging technology, autonomous vehicles and ground positioning/tracking. Supporting these initiatives are some long-time sponsors like Airbus, Maxar, ST Engineering, Ariane Space and more. Singapore Space & Technology Ltd. is very honored and happy to host GSTC 2022. We do hope that our efforts will one day keep the marine, sailor, soldier or airman safe or maybe not even need them to be in harm s way to begin with; after all, it is a future world with endless possibilities
