?? Space investment isn’t just growing—it’s rapidly transforming. We are thrilled to announce our "Space Funding" panel, where experts will explore the evolving dynamics of space investment and the shifting roles of government and private sector funding. Historically dominated by government initiatives, space exploration is now a fertile ground for private enterprise, spurred by decreasing launch costs, technological advances, and the emergence of viable commercial applications. With opportunities growing, finding the optimal balance between public and private sector funding has become essential to sustain innovation, economic growth, and strategic interests. Join us for "Space Funding: The Role of Government vs. the Private Sector," moderated by Dr. Matthew Weinzierl, Senior Associate Dean at Harvard Business School. A leading expert in space economics and policy, Dr. Weinzierl recently released his book, "Space to Grow: Unlocking the Final Economic Frontier" (Feb 2025).
