Satellite derived technologies are coming of age, with more data, more connectivity and more solutions being made available. The public sector's use of space as an enabling technology can stimulate innovation and growth whilst at same time making government more efficient and ‘smarter’.

This talk will introduce how the Space for Smarter Government Programme (SSGP) helps encourage public sector uptake of space solutions, how it acts as an enabling interface between the space sector and government, and a live initiative that companies can use to engage with public sector sponsors to share and test ideas.
