The world’s first “Space for Island Nations” conference is set to take place in Crossroads Maldives, from May 2nd to May 5th, 2023. This event will bring together international space companies, policymakers from island nations and NGOs alongside experts in climate science and environmental management.
SINC 2023 is hosted by the Maldives Space Research Organisation (MSRO).
For government representatives from different island nations, this conference is an opportunity to network with other islands that share similar issues in climate change, erosion, maritime security, illegal fishing, and explore potential applications of space technology and uses of space data to solve these problems.
Space entrepreneurship, space education as well as building resilient communities and robust ecosystems are therefore key themes of SINC 2023. The SINC 2023 core conference will also be live streamed to online attendees, for which online tickets can be purchased.
