ISpA echoes the Hon’ble Prime Minister’s vision of ‘Atma Nirbhar Bharat’. We work with all stakeholders to create an enabling environment for the private Indian Space industry to grow organically and thereby contribute towards addressing our National and Global aspirations.
In the recent past, one of the major achievements of ISpA has been to work closely with related stakeholder agencies for the formalisation of the New Space Policy, and curation of Def-Space Challenges which were announced by Hon’ble PM Modi during DefExpo-2022.
As a follow-up of 'Mission DefSpace' challenges, we are bringing this event based on major inputs received from stakeholders and industry to promulgate the National Space strategy. It further aims to explore India's ambitions in the space domain, with a focus on innovation, thought leadership, and disruptive technologies.
About Symposium
The Symposium is intended to create a platform for all stakeholders who have a keen interest in boosting India’s military space capability and plans. It will bring together experts from multiple domains to discuss the latest trends and challenges in the field of defence, making it an excellent networking opportunity for attendees from the defence, DRDO, and government sectors, as well as industry professionals.
It will focus on delivering space domain awareness and satellite communications to enhance military operations, and address issues related to securing funding for new space capabilities, expanding international partnerships, and developing a Defence Space Strategy in line with the National Space Strategy.
The Symposium covers a wide range of topics, including an overview of government spending on defence space around the world, institutional evolution and modernization of defence establishments from a Space perspective, procurement and exposure of demand from Defence Space to local industry, key technologies emerging to make a difference for Defence Space, and lessons and impacts of employment of Space power.
