GMV was present in this year's edition, which was organized in collaboration with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and where over a hundred professionals attended from different countries. This meeting seeks primarily to promote international cooperation and showcases scientific advances in the field of safety and sustainability of space systems. In this context, the event emphasized the need to create a culture of space security and promote peaceful and responsible use of space. With the growing number of commercial spaceports and organizations and the emergence of a commercial market for human spaceflight, the conference addressed the need for mutual understanding, trust and international cooperation in space endeavors. The 12th IAASS Conference consisted of four main blocks: international cooperation in lunar search and rescue, launch and re-entry safety, space traffic management and the importance of safety regulations for space activities, and safety considerations for long duration missions, such as those related to human spaceflight. As part of the “Space Debris & STM” session on the second day of the conference, Jesús Tirado, Head of SST&STM Technology&Products of GMV, gave the talk on “Growth of the Global STM Industrial Landscape: The GMV Case”, in which he highlighted the progress made by the space industry in space-debris surveillance and space-traffic management and GMV's leading role in it. For over 20 years GMV has been investing considerable R&D efforts in developing various solutions to the problem of space debris, taking part in many major projects carried out by ESA and national agencies. In this respect, the company has become a global reference in the study, monitoring, proliferation prevention and elimination of space debris, with more than 100 engineers working in eight different countries (Spain, France, Germany, United Kingdom, Poland, Romania, Portugal, and the United States).
