We speak with Dr Joel S. Marciano, Jr., Director General, Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA).
As the global space industry rapidly expands, ASEAN countries like the Philippines are uniquely positioned to leverage space technologies as drivers of sustainable economic growth and regional development.
Dr. Marciano is the Director General (DG) of the Philippine Space Agency (PhilSA), a position that holds the rank of a Cabinet Secretary and serves as Presidential Adviser on Space Matters. He is also a Full Professor at the University of the Philippines and was the UP-Dado Banatao Fellow at the University of California Berkeley and UC San Diego. From 2014-2020, he led the development of the Philippines’ Diwata microsatellites and Maya nanosatellites, ground infrastructure and data operations. In 2023, Dr. Marciano was conferred an Honorary Doctorate by Hokkaido University for distinguished contributions to education and research via international exchanges.
