The event will also feature an expert keynote by Abdulla Hamad Bushahab, Manager - Business Development Section, Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), and a panel discussion with our speakers commenting on the various projects the UAE government has initiated to support space-based innovation and encourage interest among local and regional entrepreneurs and investors to join the space race.
