The agenda covers all aspects of space: civil, commercial, national security, entrepreneurship, finance, education, and workforce issues, and the speakers are a "who's who" in the space community, including:
  • Air Force Space Command Commander Gen. C. Robert Kehler, USAF

  • Director of Institutional Affairs, Euroconsult/Managing Director, Euroconsult North America Steve Bochinger
  • A panel of NRO directors from the past 30 years
  • Actor/space enthusiast Leonard Nimoy
  • During the Symposium, there will be education programs for teachers and students, separate "out of the box" programs for young space professionals, and the latest in space technology at the extensive AMERICOM Government Services (AGS) Exhibit Center. High-level awards will be presented to Leonard Nimoy and former astronaut Capt. John Young, USN (Retired).

    There will also be a separate conference focused on cyberspace called Cyber 1.0 immediately preceding the Symposium on April 12, featuring top-level Air Force Space Command and industry speakers plus interactive demonstrations of cyberspace technologies.  For details, go to.
