<P CLASS="MsoNormal">Steve Greenland is the Founder and Managing Director of Craft Prospect. He oversees the company development and delivery of new products by the technical leads. His own experience includes leadership of national space missions from proposal through to in-orbit operations, growing and developing engineering teams, establishing international partnerships for space development and mission lab facilities, and acting as project manager and design authority for space missions and systems. He finds the challenge in running a small space SME matched by the enthusiasm and dedication of the team at Craft Prospect highly rewarding and mildly terrifying. When not Crafting/Prospecting, his interests include work as a trustee for a local charity, scuba diving, skiing and playing games with his daughter.</P>
<P CLASS="MsoNormal">Steve’s work has been recognised by a number of awards and fellowships over ten years in the space industry including a Fellowship with the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851, Sir Frank Whittle Award, and as a finalist of the UKSA Arthur C Clark Space Individual of the Year.</P>
