September news at the ICC

IAC

This week, several Venture Catalyst Space alumni are taking centre stage at the largest international space convention in Sydney, the 76th International Astonautical Conress (IAC).

The ability to have a presence at this level shows just how successful South Australia is as a launching pad for startups. The ever-growing ecosystem of not just space startups but high-tech companies that have managed to find a foothold and substantially grow their footprint on an international level is deeply commendable.

Under the new Adelaide University banner, as part of South Australia – the Space to Be!, you will find Craig or Ben eager and ready to talk to you this week. We're also really looking forward to current Venture Catalyst Space participants, Sai and Kathiravan from GroundZero Space presenting at IAC. They'll be talking about next generation tracking systems for enhanced space domain awareness and optimised space traffic management.
