First Space Legal Congress—The Need for Regulation of the Spanish Space Sector

On November 29th, the Space Committee of the Spanish Institute of Engineering and the Aerospace Legal Observatory, formed by the Spanish Association of Aeronautic and Space Law (AEDAE) and the Research Group GIESA BIOLAW of the Faculty of Law of the Complutense University of Madrid organize in Madrid the "First Space Legal Congress, Necessity of regulation of the Spanish space sector."

The event will be attended by representatives of the aerospace industry, the Administration and a round table discussion with elected representatives of different political parties on two essential aspects for the space sector in our country. The first, the need for specific legislation to regulate space activities to provide certainty and legal security to investments and promote and encourage a driving force for R&D and technological development in Spain and to prevent us from falling behind in taking advantage of opportunities compared to the countries around us. The second is the advisability of creating a Spanish Space Agency, as a unifying body for the different fields in this area to facilitate the projects of our companies in the sector.

Jorge Potti, GMV's General Manager of Space and chairman of TEDAE's Space Committee, took part in the round table "Challenges and opportunities in the Spanish space sector. Advisability of a Spanish Space Agency?"

Registration for the event, which is free of charge, can be followed both in person and online under registration.
