Tuesday 19 June HQ Conference – “3rd European Space Tourism Conference: Open for Business”
The Space Tourism industry is open for business. And not just to a handful of the world’s wealthiest people. Companies developing commercial and re-usable space vehicles such as Virgin Galactic, XCOR, Blue Origin and Armadillo are attracting massive publicity with operations of sub-orbital space flights soon to commence. Following the success of the Royal Aeronautical Society’s earlier Space Tourism events in 2006 and 2009, the Society will host the 3rd European Space Tourism Conference in June 2012. This event will bring together stakeholders such as private space companies, venture capitalists, payload integrators, industrial partners, lawyers, tourism agencies, and safety, regulatory & insurance experts. It will be a unique opportunity to hear and interact with the leaders and innovators from the space tourism industry and develop key professional relationships.
