But the associated Governance frameworks cannot keep pace. Established and startup companies, trade associations, and the investment community, among others, have enlisted George to overcome this imbalance and ensure their ventures take flight and flourish in the communications and space industries, including any potential overlap with sports, medical, or mobility applications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He has become a go-to problem solver, advisor, and advocate. With his support, clients have maneuvered deftly through complex, patchwork, and sometimes inscrutable rulemakings, consultations, and statutory construction; licensing, landing rights\/market access, registration, equipment authorization, and labeling; regulatory, technical, and engineering standards compliance; and enforcement when they are tackling radiofrequency spectrum, orbital debris, remote sensing, and other related issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What makes him unique are his numerous connections, deep industry knowledge, and prior diverse experiences. His current practice regularly engages US bodies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Department of Commerce (including the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and Office of Space Commerce), Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA),and US Congress; and other bodies such as the International Telecommunication Union, UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses for Outer Space, and foreign administrations (particularly in Europe where he\u00a0 lived during an extended secondment). Before starting his practice, previous career stops included a pioneering nanosatellite company and the FCC and FAA. Clients have secured expedited and often first-of-their-kind wins given his well-established relationships with and understanding of these decisionmakers.<\/span><\/p>\n                                                                            <\/div>\r\n                                                                        <\/div>\r\n                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                                <\/div>\r\n                                                            <\/div>\r\n                                                            <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2\">\r\n                                                                <div class=\"vcenter artist-image artist-single-row\">\r\n                                                                                                                                                                                                                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" alt=\"Keynote Presentations image\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Framed_Geoge-V.-John-90x90.png\" \/>\r\n                                                                                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                                <div class=\"vcenter tcode-es-artist-title-container artist-single-row\">\r\n                                                                    <div class=\"tcode-es-artist-title\" style=\"color: ;\">\r\n                                                                        Introduced by: George V.

But the associated governance frameworks cannot keep pace. Established and startup companies, trade associations, and the investment community, among others, have enlisted George to overcome this imbalance and ensure their ventures take flight and flourish in the communications and space industries, including any potential overlap with sports, medical, or mobility applications.<\/p>\n<div class=\"readMoreWrapper\">\n<p>He has become a go-to problem solver, advisor, and advocate. With his support, clients have maneuvered deftly through complex, patchwork, and sometimes inscrutable rulemakings, consultations, and statutory construction; licensing, landing rights\/market access, registration, equipment authorization, and labeling; regulatory, technical, and engineering standards compliance; and enforcement when they are tackling radiofrequency spectrum, orbital debris, remote sensing, and other related issues.<\/p>\n<p>What makes him unique are his numerous connections, deep industry knowledge, and prior diverse experiences. His current practice regularly engages US bodies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Department of Commerce (including the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and Office of Space Commerce), Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and US Congress; and other bodies such as the International Telecommunication Union, UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses for Outer Space, and foreign administrations (particularly in Europe where he lived during an extended secondment). Before starting his practice, previous career stops included a pioneering nanosatellite company and the FCC and FAA. Clients have secured expedited and often first-of-their-kind wins given his well-established relationships with and understanding of these decisionmakers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n                                                                            <\/div>\r\n                                                                        <\/div>\r\n                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                                <\/div>\r\n                                                            <\/div>\r\n                                                            <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2\">\r\n                                                                <div class=\"vcenter artist-image artist-single-row\">\r\n                                                                                                                                                                                                                    <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" alt=\"Session 1: Towards a Cohesive Space Policy Framework Across the Americas image\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Framed_Geoge-V.-John-90x90.png\" \/>\r\n                                                                                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                                <div class=\"vcenter tcode-es-artist-title-container artist-single-row\">\r\n                                                                    <div class=\"tcode-es-artist-title\" style=\"color: ;\">\r\n                                                                        Moderator: George V.

As mounting concerns are exacerbated by the existence of over 100 million pieces of debris already orbiting Earth, ensuring a safe and secure space environment has become a global priority requiring coordinated action from both industry and policymakers alike.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accordingly, this session addresses the urgent challenges of space sustainability, debris mitigation, and traffic management. It offers a chance to assess the current regulatory landscape, explore what the future holds, and identify actionable strategies for stakeholders across the Americas. Panelists will examine how both regional and national efforts contribute to a global solution, and highlight how existing legislation can foster stronger international collaboration. Given the rapid expansion of private sector activity in space, the discussion will also emphasize the global responsibilities required for effective space governance, ensuring policies keep pace with the complexities of an increasingly dynamic orbital environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What efforts are currently ongoing at national, regional, and global levels to build a sustainable space ecosystem?

Key issues on the for the 2027 World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-27) will also be explored, as well as how these developments might shape the future of NTN technologies in the Americas. Throughout the session, emphasis will be placed on strategies to build a spectrum policy framework that protects existing services, encourages innovation (especially for NTNs and D2D), ensures fair access for all stakeholders, and harmonizes regulation across national boundaries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What challenges and opportunities are currently being seen relating to space-based services and NTN connectivity across the Americas and globally?<\/li>\n<li>How is the growth of LEO satellite systems transforming the framework that governs satellite spectrum licensing and access models in the Americas? What challenges are their unique deployment models creating for regulators?<\/li>\n<li>What strategies can regulators adopt to facilitate coexistence among GEO, MEO, and LEO operators while avoiding interference and ensuring equitable access across the region?<\/li>\n<li>What decisions regarding spectrum licensing and management for satellite operators take place at a national, regional, and global level in the Americas?

But the associated Governance frameworks cannot keep pace. Established and startup companies, trade associations, and the investment community, among others, have enlisted George to overcome this imbalance and ensure their ventures take flight and flourish in the communications and space industries, including any potential overlap with sports, medical, or mobility applications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He has become a go-to problem solver, advisor, and advocate. With his support, clients have maneuvered deftly through complex, patchwork, and sometimes inscrutable rulemakings, consultations, and statutory construction; licensing, landing rights\/market access, registration, equipment authorization, and labeling; regulatory, technical, and engineering standards compliance; and enforcement when they are tackling radiofrequency spectrum, orbital debris, remote sensing, and other related issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What makes him unique are his numerous connections, deep industry knowledge, and prior diverse experiences. His current practice regularly engages US bodies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Department of Commerce (including the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and Office of Space Commerce), Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA),and US Congress; and other bodies such as the International Telecommunication Union, UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses for Outer Space, and foreign administrations (particularly in Europe where he\u00a0 lived during an extended secondment). Before starting his practice, previous career stops included a pioneering nanosatellite company and the FCC and FAA. Clients have secured expedited and often first-of-their-kind wins given his well-established relationships with and understanding of these decisionmakers.<\/span><\/p>\n                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                                <\/div>\r\n                                                            <\/div>\r\n                                                        <\/div>\r\n                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                    <div class=\"col-md-10 col-md-offset-2 tcode-es-artist-title-col vcenter\">\r\n                                                        <div class=\"vcenter artist-image\">\r\n                                                                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" alt=\"Keynote Presentations image\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Framed_Geoge-V.-John-90x90.png\" \/>\r\n                                                                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                        <div class=\"vcenter tcode-es-artist-title-container\">\r\n                                                            <div class=\"tcode-es-artist-title\" style=\"color: ;\">\r\n                                                                Introduced by: George V.

But the associated governance frameworks cannot keep pace. Established and startup companies, trade associations, and the investment community, among others, have enlisted George to overcome this imbalance and ensure their ventures take flight and flourish in the communications and space industries, including any potential overlap with sports, medical, or mobility applications.<\/p>\n<div class=\"readMoreWrapper\">\n<p>He has become a go-to problem solver, advisor, and advocate. With his support, clients have maneuvered deftly through complex, patchwork, and sometimes inscrutable rulemakings, consultations, and statutory construction; licensing, landing rights\/market access, registration, equipment authorization, and labeling; regulatory, technical, and engineering standards compliance; and enforcement when they are tackling radiofrequency spectrum, orbital debris, remote sensing, and other related issues.<\/p>\n<p>What makes him unique are his numerous connections, deep industry knowledge, and prior diverse experiences. His current practice regularly engages US bodies such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Department of Commerce (including the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and Office of Space Commerce), Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and US Congress; and other bodies such as the International Telecommunication Union, UN Committee on the Peaceful Uses for Outer Space, and foreign administrations (particularly in Europe where he lived during an extended secondment). Before starting his practice, previous career stops included a pioneering nanosatellite company and the FCC and FAA. Clients have secured expedited and often first-of-their-kind wins given his well-established relationships with and understanding of these decisionmakers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                                <\/div>\r\n                                                            <\/div>\r\n                                                        <\/div>\r\n                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                    <div class=\"col-md-10 col-md-offset-2 tcode-es-artist-title-col vcenter\">\r\n                                                        <div class=\"vcenter artist-image\">\r\n                                                                                                                                                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"img-responsive\" alt=\"Session 1: Towards a Cohesive Space Policy Framework Across the Americas image\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Framed_Geoge-V.-John-90x90.png\" \/>\r\n                                                                                                                    <\/div>\r\n                                                        <div class=\"vcenter tcode-es-artist-title-container\">\r\n                                                            <div class=\"tcode-es-artist-title\" style=\"color: ;\">\r\n                                                                Moderator: George V.

As mounting concerns are exacerbated by the existence of over 100 million pieces of debris already orbiting Earth, ensuring a safe and secure space environment has become a global priority requiring coordinated action from both industry and policymakers alike.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accordingly, this session addresses the urgent challenges of space sustainability, debris mitigation, and traffic management. It offers a chance to assess the current regulatory landscape, explore what the future holds, and identify actionable strategies for stakeholders across the Americas. Panelists will examine how both regional and national efforts contribute to a global solution, and highlight how existing legislation can foster stronger international collaboration. Given the rapid expansion of private sector activity in space, the discussion will also emphasize the global responsibilities required for effective space governance, ensuring policies keep pace with the complexities of an increasingly dynamic orbital environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What efforts are currently ongoing at national, regional, and global levels to build a sustainable space ecosystem?

Panelists will highlight regulatory opportunities and challenges particular to the region, taking into account the contrasting needs of both established satellite operators and new market entrants. Key issues on the for the 2027 World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-27) will also be explored, as well as how these developments might shape the future of NTN technologies in the Americas. Throughout the session, emphasis will be placed on strategies to build a spectrum policy framework that protects existing services, encourages innovation (especially for NTNs and D2D), ensures fair access for all stakeholders, and harmonizes regulation across national boundaries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What challenges and opportunities are currently being seen relating to space-based services and NTN connectivity across the Americas and globally?<\/li>\n<li>How is the growth of LEO satellite systems transforming the framework that governs satellite spectrum licensing and access models in the Americas?

SIA grew out of the Satellite Super Skyway Coalition, a voluntary alliance of major satellite players, galvanized into action in early 1993 when the U.S. Government began advancing the idea of a Global Information Infrastructure (GII). The success of the coalition in defining the role of satellites in the GII strengthened ties between major industry players and sowed the seeds for what today is the Satellite Industry Association. Since that time, SIA has developed into a full service 501(c) (6) trade association representing the commercial satellite industry. SIA has established active working groups involved with a host of policy issues including: regulatory issues (satellite licensing, spectrum allocation and regulatory policy); government services, public safety, export control policy, and international trade issues. SIA is now a recognized focal point for the U.S. satellite industry in Washington, D.C., representing and advocating industry positions with key policy makers on Capitol Hill and with the White House, Federal Communication Commission and most Executive Branch departments and agencies.<\/p><p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sia.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.sia.org<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-footer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-lower-close\" data-dismiss=\"premium-modal\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tClose\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-392849f premium-modal-dismissible-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-premium-addon-modal-box\" data-id=\"392849f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;premium_modal_box_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"premium-addon-modal-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;show_on_exit&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-trigger-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" data-toggle=\"premium-modal\" data-target=\"#premium-modal-392849f\" class=\"premium-modal-trigger-img\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skylo_logo_350x194-removebg-preview.png\" alt=\"Skylo Technologies\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div id=\"premium-modal-392849f\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal\"\n\t\t\trole=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tstyle=\"display: none\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-dialog\" data-delay-animation=\"\" data-modal-animation=\"fadeInDown animated-fast\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPlatinum Sponsor\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-close-button-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-close\" data-dismiss=\"premium-modal\">&times;<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-7933\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skylo_logo_350x194-removebg-preview-300x166.png\" alt=\"Skylo Technologies\" width=\"161\" height=\"89\" srcset=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skylo_logo_350x194-removebg-preview-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Skylo_logo_350x194-removebg-preview.png 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 161px) 100vw, 161px\" \/><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Skylo Technologies is a global Non-Terrestrial Network service provider based in Mountain View, CA, offering a service that allows smartphones and IoT cellular devices to connect directly over existing satellites.

It is a ground-based radar, based in a close monostatic configuration, operating at L band and capable of providing positional information of orbital objects. The radar provides automatic surveillance and tracking of space objects in Low Earth Orbit (from 200 km to 2000 Km of orbit height above Earth). Currently operated by the Spanish Air and Space Force in the Space Surveillance Operations Center (COVE), it supplies daily data to the European Union Space Surveillance and Tracking Partnership (EU-SST) consortium network, to which it has contributed with a substantial increase in its capacity to detect and aware.<\/p><p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.indracompany.com\/en\/\">www.indracompany.com\/en\/<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-footer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-lower-close\" data-dismiss=\"premium-modal\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tClose\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ea5701 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6ea5701\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a6ebe59 premium-modal-dismissible-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-premium-addon-modal-box\" data-id=\"a6ebe59\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;premium_modal_box_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"premium-addon-modal-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;show_on_exit&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-trigger-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" data-toggle=\"premium-modal\" data-target=\"#premium-modal-a6ebe59\" class=\"premium-modal-trigger-img\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/21.-Inmarsat.png\" alt=\"21.-Inmarsat.png\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div id=\"premium-modal-a6ebe59\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal\"\n\t\t\trole=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tstyle=\"display: none\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-dialog\" data-delay-animation=\"\" data-modal-animation=\"fadeInDown animated-fast\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSponsor\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-close-button-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-close\" data-dismiss=\"premium-modal\">&times;<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-7007\" src=\"https:\/\/euspaceforum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/21.-Inmarsat-300x148.png\" alt=\"Inmarsat\" width=\"300\" height=\"148\" \/><\/div><div>Inmarsat is the United Kingdom\u2019s leading space company and delivers world leading, innovative, advanced and exceptionally reliable global, mobile communications across the world \u2013 in the air, at sea and on land \u2013 that are enabling a new generation of commercial, government and mission-critical services.

By end of 2024, it will measure emissions almost anywhere on Earth with greater precision than any other satellite &#8211; from large leaks to sources too small for other satellites to see. Its initial mission is to quantify methane coming from the global oil &amp; gas industry. MethaneSAT data will be free and publicly available to catalyze faster action by countries and companies to fix problems faster and more effectively. With high precision measurement capabilities and a wide view path, MethaneSAT will track not only the rate at which methane is being emitted and from where, but how those emissions are changing \u2013 making it easier to prioritize solutions for maximum benefit. It will quantify emission rates from the global level on down to sites as small as one kilometer.<\/p><dl class=\"overflow-hidden\"><dt class=\"mb1\"><h3 class=\"text-heading-medium\"><a id=\"ember2852\" class=\"link-without-visited-state ember-view\" style=\"font-size: 16px;\" tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.methanesat.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"link-without-visited-state\" dir=\"ltr\">https:\/\/www.methanesat.org\/<\/span><\/a><\/h3><\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-footer\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-lower-close\" data-dismiss=\"premium-modal\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tClose\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d3fa752 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d3fa752\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-49b1247 premium-modal-dismissible-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-premium-addon-modal-box\" data-id=\"49b1247\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;premium_modal_box_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInDown&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"premium-addon-modal-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;trigger&quot;:&quot;image&quot;,&quot;show_on_exit&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-trigger-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" data-toggle=\"premium-modal\" data-target=\"#premium-modal-49b1247\" class=\"premium-modal-trigger-img\" src=\"https:\/\/americasspaceforum.com\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Neuraspace-350x194-1.png\" alt=\"Neuraspace-350x194-1.png\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div id=\"premium-modal-49b1247\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal\"\n\t\t\trole=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tstyle=\"display: none\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-dialog\" data-delay-animation=\"\" data-modal-animation=\"fadeInDown animated-fast\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-header\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSponsor\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-close-button-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-close\" data-dismiss=\"premium-modal\">&times;<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"premium-modal-box-modal-body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5100\" src=\"https:\/\/euspaceforum.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Neuraspace-350x194-1-300x166.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"166\" \/><\/div><div><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neuraspace is a pioneer company in the use of AI\/ML to fight Space Debris and collisions that can destroy satellites, enabling satellite operators to detect up to 50% more high-risk collisions that have been so far undetected and reducing the need for human intervention up to 2\/3.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neuraspace allows satellite operators to reduce operational manpower efforts, in particular for large constellations. The number of false alerts will be fewer, and the time between close approach and manoeuvre decision will be less. Thus, you will save on fuel and time, while collisions and the menace of space debris will be minimized.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neuraspace provides an end-to-end solution centered around: (1) Data Fusion; (2) AI and Machine Learning; and (3) Manoeuvring Automation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To contribute to the evolution of spacecraft operations, Neuraspace aims to solve the space debris problem by protecting satellites operators from the losses caused by collisions, liabilities from leaving debris in orbit and allowing insurance companies to better price the risk that each satellite poses.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The continuous increase in space traffic and debris in the last years lead to a significant increase in the amount of information related to conjunction events. This situation poses a very complex challenge to space operators as the conjunction events need a careful \u201cmanual\u201d analysis, which is time, cost and effort consuming. AI (specifically ML) algorithms represent an essential technique in the automation of this process, mainly due to its ability to handle big amounts of data.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By using a data driven approach with state of the art Machine Learning techniques, Neuraspace is able to outperform the current methods, while automating the process of collision risk avoidance.
