ABOUT spaceNEXT

Where the future of the new space economy takes flight.

Space is no longer a distant frontier — it is driving a rapidly scaling global economy. From in-space manufacturing and logistics to new infrastructure, research, and services, the next generation of industries is being built now.

spaceNEXT is the global convening for leaders shaping the new space economy. It brings together industry, government, investors, researchers, and academia from around the world to accelerate commercialization, forge partnerships, and align on what comes next.

spaceNEXT is operated by Connected DMV and reflects Greater Washington’s unique strength at the intersection of policy, technology, diplomacy, and infrastructure — and its growing role as a global hub for space-based enterprise.

This isn’t just a conference. It’s a launch point.
