SPACETIDE has taken initiatives in accelerating collaborations across industries and providing the access to new space business. Among the initiatives, our main conference has been functioning as an important platform, which has enabled individuals (entrepreneurs, investors, engineers, designers, and researchers) and organizations (space ventures, major aerospace companies, non-space-related companies, and government agencies) to connect and interact with each other.
The concept of our 5th main conference, SPACETIDE 2021 Spring, is 'the beginning of the space commercialization phase'.
Although in the space industry significant funding and technological developments to complement a variety of visions held by space actors have been already observed, the widespread commercialization of the industry has just begun.
This trend has been accelerating not only within the United States and European countries, but also to Asian countries.
This year, we invite more than 60 speakers from over 10 countries/regions and discuss topics of the forefront of the industry.
Together with you, we would like to spend exciting 2 days in SPACETIDE 2021 Spring!

For the benefit of industrial development, it is critical to widely promote the notion of "space as a business" to those who are interested in new industrial areas, as well as to those who are interested in space. In Japan, there are several media organizations and communities that are active in promoting development of industries other than SPACETIDE. We will discuss the aims and ambitions of such organizations and understand how we are all encouraging macro-progression of industry together
