There is no better moment to have that conversation with our political stakeholders than when the sector comes together on 4–5 March 2026 at ExCeL London for Space Comm Expo Europe in partnership with ADS. London is one of the world’s great cities for growing a space business.
Welcoming more than 5,400 delegates, 250 exhibitors and 200 speakers from over 50 nations, Space Comm Expo Europe will provide a vital forum for leaders from government, industry, and business to promote collaboration, innovation, and drive investment to help accelerate the full potential of the UK and European space sector. Building on its strong heritage of previous shows, this year is set to be a particularly loaded with global thought leaders and innovative side events.
As the trade association representing more than 1,800 organisations across the UK’s aerospace, defence, security and space sectors – with roughly 40% of our membership having a primary or significant interest in the space sector – we see first-hand how essential space capabilities are to our national security, economic competitiveness and global influence. Recent geopolitical uncertainty has further highlighted just how vital these capabilities are for UK preparedness.
With a major focus on dual‑use technologies and defence, this year’s event will showcase a dedicated Defence & National Security Zone, providing a platform for industry, government and international partners to explore operational needs, discuss capability gaps, and demonstrate the technologies that will define the next generation of UK space power.
