13th Australian Space Forum

The Andy Thomas Space Foundation welcomed a global audience of over 900 to the 13th edition of the Australian Space Forum, which was held on Thursday, 3 March 2022 at the Adelaide Convention Centre in South Australia.
Supported by the Australian Space Agency, the South Australian Space Industry Centre and the SmartSat CRC, the Forum provided the perfect opportunity to stimulate ideas, share information about emerging technologies and network with influential space sector leaders and the broader community.
Participants attended in-person, or virtually through the event’s global interactive platform.
Forum Program
The space sector in Australia is experiencing unprecedented growth as industry, academia, and government work together to expand their activities and develop international relationships for ongoing opportunity and success within the space economy.
The following program outline highlights four highly pertinent topics that shaped the focus of the event, sparked discussion, and inspired new ideas.
This iconic event was not to be missed and represents one of the foremost events on the national space industry calendar. If you were unable to make it to the 13th instalment, check out the 14th Australian Space Forum here (coming soon)
Space Passport Program
A highlight of the Australian Space Forum was the educational outreach the event provided to students through the Space Passport program, enabling the opportunity for students to learn about space career pathways through direct engagement with Australia’s space leaders.
The Space Passport Program sessions encouraged students to:
- Talk directly to companies currently involved with the Australian Space Sector,
- Ask companies about current and future careers within their industry,
- Find out about the school and tertiary pathways needed to enter the discussed careers.
