›UK Space Sector COVID-19 Webinar (30 April)

Time: 30 April 2PM - 3:30PM BST

From Thursday 30 April, a fortnightly COVID-19 Webinar will provide an update on how UK space sector companies and academia are being impacted by the pandemic, as well as the latest advice, information and resources available. You will also have the opportunity to engage directly with senior leadership from government and industry and share how COVID-19 is impacting your organisation.

The UK Space Agency, the Department for International Trade and the UKspace trade association are working together to help the space sector respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, and these webinars have been developed in partnership with the Satellite Applications Catapult, European Space Agency, ADS and the Satellite Finance Network.
