UKSEDS Annual Conference

Thursday, February 19th, 2015

On the weekend of 28 February – 1 March 2015 the UK chapter of Students for the Exploration and Development of Space are holding their annual conference.

The event will be hosted by the University of Surrey, an institution deeply involved in the space sector.  Speakers include ISPL Faculty Member Richard Graham, who will talk about intellectual property and other space law issues.  Richard is Head of Digital IP at Richemont.

The conference is well attended each year by students from a variety of disciplines.  It’s a great opportunity to network, learn about careers in the space sector, and learn from experts in a broad range of space-related fields.  

UKSEDS enjoys strong support from the space sector, as illustrated by the list of sponsors for this year’s event.  Surrey Satellite Technology is one of these – its Executive Director, Professor Sir Martin Sweeting, is one of ISPL’s Directors.
