On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Join us for the fourth Oxford Smart Space Event: Entrepreneurship opportunities and jobs in the space industry.
There are currently over 1,000 companies worldwide working to create the rapidly growing NewSpace economy. What was once dominated by only a few players is now a diverse ecosystem of businesses both large and small and emerging opportunities across multiple sectors. Space is now personified by rock-star technology entrepreneurs and New Space companies. These entrepreneurs and companies are driving the commoditization and monetization of space. Satellites that capture geospatial data can have so many different applications across different industries. Costs have dropped by about 60% to 80% what creates many opportunities.
What are the most relevant innovation opportunities?
How can entrepreneurs further explore these opportunities and identify new business models to create a positive impact?
What skillset is needed for entrepreneurs to succeed in this industry
Panel discussion hosted by Maria Zubeldia, Director of the Entrepreneurship Centre, Said Business School.
With speakers:
Harriet Brettle, Head of Business Analysis Astroscale
Joanna Hart, Harwell Space Cluster Development Manager
Rafael Jorda, Founder and CEO Open Cosmos.
