World Space Business Week is the annual rendezvous of decision makers to engage, establish new partnerships, make deals and exchange on the future of space solutions and connectivity.

As a multi-orbit space solutions company, SES is redefining what's possible—and this is a great opportunity to connect with the influential leaders shaping that future. Our CEO Adel Al-Saleh will take part in a fireside chat discussion to share his perspectives on the future of space on 15 September.
