And so the list grows...now at 36 these experts will gather for one day. This is something that would take months of travel and careful planning in order to meet with each of these professionals, let alone afford their individual rates.

Jones Day 7th floor conference center overlooking the capital building in Washington D.C.

The Space and Satellite Regulatory Colloquium will be held at the Jones Day Conference Facilities and is presented by SatNews in collaboration with ManSat and Jones Day on Thursday, October 24th from 8 am until 6 pm.

These three agencies have been planning the event carefully, choosing the most respected and noteworthy specialists in their field. It is truly an elegant group of experts. For you to be able to stand amongst them for this one day will certainly be a memory held for a lifetime.

The conference center takes full advantage of the historic and beautiful scenery as it overlooks and provides views of the majestic U.S. Capitol Building. Here breakfast and lunch will be provided, and at the conclusion a reception will be held on the patio overlooking the Capitol Building with a wine tasting and cocktail hour. Ensure that you book your space today, so that you can rub elbows with all the 'Who’s Who'.

A colloquium is an academic seminar usually led by a different lecturer and on a different topic at each meeting. This is an understatement with the list of 36 guest academics who will be presenting a plethora of information—and all in one day, October 24th!

What you don’t know in the area of emerging space law and regulatory issues that are facing the U.S. Administration and International governments could hurt you.
