GSOA and Novaspace announce the inaugural edition of the Space Industry Forum (SIF), a new flagship event co-organized by both organizations, taking place on May 19, 2026, at The Fullerton Hotel in Singapore.
SIF is set to bring together more than 200 senior executives, policymakers, and industry leaders from over 20 countries. SIF will set the agenda for the space and satellite sector ahead of Asia Tech x Singapore – positioning itself as the key gathering to open a week of high-level industry engagement.
Building on the legacy of the AVIA Satellite Industry Forum and CASBAA – and combining Novaspace’s long-standing role in convening global space leaders and delivering market intelligence with GSOA’s leadership in representing and advancing the satellite ecosystem – SIF introduces a renewed platform for decision-makers to connect, exchange, and shape the future of the global space industry.
At the crossroads of global markets, Singapore has emerged as a strategic hub for connectivity, innovation, and digital infrastructure in the Asia-Pacific region. The Space Industry Forum leverages this unique position to bring together regional and international leaders in a focused, executive environment – creating a space where ideas translate into partnerships and strategy turns into action.
The Forum will address the transformations redefining the sector, from connectivity and direct-to-device (D2D) to government space strategies and NewSpace developments – focusing not only on trends, but on their impact on business, investment, and competitive positioning.
Designed as a one-day, senior-level gathering, SIF delivers a targeted, high-value experience for industry leaders. With over 30 speakers, 200+ delegates, and more than 80 organizations represented, the Forum combines concise sessions with curated networking to enable direct engagement among decision-makers. The event will conclude with an exclusive networking reception, setting the tone for the space and satellite week ahead in Singapore, with ATxSG Summit and Expo.
As the opening event of Singapore’s space-focused week, SIF provides a unique platform to align perspectives, initiate partnerships, and shape the strategic priorities that will define the year ahead.
For leaders across the space and satellite ecosystem, this is where the conversation starts – and where the future takes shape.
