First-ever edition of SATExpo Middle East to

spotlight innovations shaping global space and
satellite industry

May 09, 2025

SATExpo Middle East 2025 launches as the premier regional event for the space and
satellite industry, in response to industry demand for a specialised platform for innovation
and collaboration.

Set to take place from May 13 to 15, 2025, at the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC),
SATExpo has grown out of long-running B2B event CABSAT. While the annual edition of
CABSAT covers a wide spectrum of broadcast, content, and digital media, SATExpo zeroes
in on critical applications across aviation, maritime, government, telecom, energy, and
emergency response sectors.

The highly anticipated inaugural edition will welcome 140+ international exhibiting brands
and 8,000+ senior-level professionals, high-level buyers, and global thought leaders to
explore the latest breakthroughs, share insights and shape the future of space technology.
SATExpo will also showcase transformative technologies that are shaping the industry, from
next-generation satellite systems to best-in-class space exploration innovations.

Shaping an advancing market
Driven by the National Space Strategy 2030, the UAE’s space sector is rapidly expanding,
achieving a 40% increase in space service and application contracts in 2020, alongside
growth in related education and training. SATExpo is projected to support this advancing
market by shaping the future of space and satellite services in the MEASA region.

The exhibition, held concurrently with CABSAT, features the launch of the ‘Innovation
Capsule’, a bespoke concierge programme that will offer private briefings and B2B meetings,
to help establish MOU and partnerships. An exclusive private lounge creates a space of
relaxed networking and dialogue.

SATExpo also brings from CABSAT the SATExpo Summit, which will convene global space
industry leaders for two days of high-level discussions and features a powerhouse roster of
space sector leaders, including key figures from government and state-linked entities. After
