Space Innovation and Defense Working Group
The Space Innovation and Defense Working Group unites government, industry, and academia to strengthen the resilience, interoperability, and innovation of U.S. and allied space defense systems in an increasingly contested and competitive domain.
We’re pausing the first Space Innovation and Defense Working Group meeting until the federal government reopens; we’ll send a new invite as soon as we have a date.
If you would like to participate in the working group or learn more, please contact Elizabeth Wyckoff at [email protected].
