speakers from the UAE Space Agency, S4 GmbH, and Astroscale Japan. Day 2 will focus on AI-driven
satellite data applications, strategies for technology localisation, and the growing influence of women in

space leadership, with key insights from Rivada Group, SpaceData Inc., and the Egyptian Space Agency,
setting the stage for the next era of space innovation.

The UAE’s strategic investments in space, forward-thinking policies, and advanced infrastructure have
cemented its role as a global space leader. Premier events like SATExpo will amplify this position, drawing

international attention and fostering industry collaboration. Backed by a legacy of high-impact
programmes, the expo will drive policy innovation and shape the future of the space economy.

This vision is powered by DWTC, the world’s leading tech event organiser. With a 30-year legacy through
CABSAT, GITEX, and AIE, DWTC is a catalyst for regional sector growth, reinforcing Dubai’s status as a
global hub for trade and innovation.

Alex Nicholl, Vice President, New Industries, the Dubai World Trade Centre, said: “As a dynamic
platform convening experts and leaders from around the globe, SATExpo Middle East will be a pivotal

milestone for the global space community. The plan to launch the ‘Innovation Capsule’ at the event highlights
the platform’s commitment to nurturing the next generation of space entrepreneurs. We are pleased to
benefit from this event feature, which empowers startups and facilitates our collaboration in shaping the

global space sector.”

This sentiment is echoed by exhibitors, who see SATExpo as a launchpad for innovation and business
growth.

Andre Hajjar, CEO of Dubai-based company AI Pro, an exhibitor at the event, said: “We look forward to
being a part of SATExpo, where we will showcase our specialised satellite design and testing solutions with
our partner, Siemens — offering attendees best-in-class qualification, design, and test systems for space.”

“Our aim is to support organisations across the MENA region with reliable and advanced tools to meet their
testing requirements – while accelerating innovation and ensuring components comply with the highest

global standards,” he added.
