The CSCA directors and members would like to thank all who participated in the Accelerating Space Conference and our Annual General Meeting, including our invited speakers Dr. Roberts Richards from Odyssey Moon and Optech Incorporated; Dr. Burton Lee of the Space Angels Network; and Peter Evans of the MaRS Discovery District.
The event on Saturday, January 26th, 2008 provide a lot of stimulating discussion and ideas for bringing forward the CSCA’s agenda of expanding Canadian opportunity for commercial activities in and related to space.
The conference presentations will go up on this site relatively soon.
Over the next few weeks and months, the CSCA executive will be following-up on the conference in several directions, including engaging with local business accelerators / incubators like MaRS. If you would like to contribute your thoughts and ideas towards these efforts, please send a message to discuss@spacecommerce.ca to discuss it publicly with members, or to myself privately at chair@spacecommerce.ca.
