SUMMARY:Register for the NewSpace Africa Conference 2027\, Dakar
DESCRIPTION:Space in Africa\, in collaboration with the African Space Agency\, is organising the sixth edition of the NewSpace Africa Conference from 19th to 23rd April 2027 in Dakar\, Senegal\, to be hosted by the Ministry of Higher Education\, Research and Innovation (MESRI) of Senegal.  \nThe conference theme\, Building\, Financing and Delivering Africa’s Space Infrastructure\, reflects a sector moving from ambition to implementation. Across the continent\, governments are establishing space institutions\, developing satellite capabilities and identifying the infrastructure needed to support applications in Earth observation\, communications\, navigation\, climate monitoring and other priority sectors. The next challenge is to turn these ambitions into sustainable infrastructure that can be financed\, delivered and used effectively. \nThe four-day conference will provide a platform for agenda-setting discussions on policies\, research\, market trends\, emerging technologies\, and the future direction of the African space and satellite industry. The programme will feature keynote sessions\, panel discussions\, interactive engagements\, business pitches\, matchmaking opportunities across B2B\, B2C\, and B2G channels\, side events\, and exhibitions. Through these engagements\, the conference aims to strengthen partnerships between African and international stakeholders\, support investment opportunities\, highlight innovations emerging from the continent\, and create pathways for the continued development of Africa’s NewSpace ecosystem. \nPrevious editions of the NewSpace Africa Conference have brought together more than 2\,300 participants from 792 organisations across 98 countries. Read the NewSpace Africa Conference Impact Report here for more details. Early-bird registration is open until 30 November 2026\, while regular registration closes on 31 March 2027.
