What's ahead for space finance as global markets shift? Join us Oct. 8.

09/30/2025

Join us on Oct. 8 for a conversation on the space investment horizon

From inflationary pressures and shifting interest rates to supply chain challenges and an intensifying great-power competition, today's macroeconomic and geopolitical forces are reshaping the future of space investment. For investors and businesses, navigating this environment means balancing capital market dynamics, technology cycles and an increasingly complex landscape of export controls, trade restrictions, and government influence.

This virtual event will bring together leading experts and executives to examine:

How macroeconomic trends, from interest rates to capital availability, are shaping early- and late-stage space financing.
The impact of geopolitical tensions on cross-border investment flows.
Whether government-led demand and sovereign wealth strategies are amplifying — or crowding out — private capital.
The role of consolidation and mergers and acquisitions in building resilience amid uncertainty.
Where the next wave of growth capital is most likely to emerge in this turbulent environment.

Join us Oct. 8 for an in-depth discussion on what the future holds for space finance in today's shifting global backdrop.
