SPAN has coordinated a workshop for its members to engage with Government (civil and defence) and UK Space to discuss opportunities for dual-use of technology, missions and applications. Outputs from the workshop will feed into a UK Space Partnership meeting on potential UK EO Programmes planned in early 2023 and will be used to inform government policy as the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) continues to evolve the Government’s EO and Space strategy.
