This year’s event will include dynamic keynote speakers, plenary presentations, technical sessions, fireside chats, lightning talks, workshops, and other activities highlighting advancements in space-based research.

ISSRDC is THE conference for up-to-date information on promising research areas, emerging technologies, and current transformative results from ISS research. Subject matter expert workshops gather thought leaders from various industries together with ISS researchers, service providers, and potential future ISS National Lab users to break boundaries and move the needle on research to benefit humanity and advance space exploration. Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) content highlights ISS-related educational resources and activities of interest to students, driving workforce development and inspiring the leaders of tomorrow.

A marketplace expo allows exhibitors to engage with participants through exposure to attendees, policymakers, and other thought leaders. Companies and partners supporting the ISS will be available throughout the conference to network with attendees, driving the future of space-based research, services, capabilities, and opportunities available in low Earth orbit.
