3rd National Space Conference NSC 2025

3rd South African National Space Conference NSC 2025

The third National Space Conference (NSC) is scheduled to be held at the CSIR International Convention Centre in Tshwane, South Africa, from 20 – 22 August 2025. The NSC is organised by the National Earth Observations and Space Secretariat (NEOSS) and the South African National Space Agency (SANSA) on behalf of the Department of Science, Technology and Innovation (DSTI), in collaboration with key national partners including the South African Air Force (SAAF).

The NSC serves as a dynamic platform for national stakeholders from diverse backgrounds to convene, exchange ideas, and catalyse discussions on critical space science and innovation challenges.

The NSC also gives South African stakeholders (such as researchers, academics, public servants, business, data suppliers, consultants, and NGOs) a forum and opportunity to interact, share ideas and information, and spark discussions about how to work together most effectively to create a sustainable space ecosystem, programs, and initiatives for national growth and development.

Why should you attend?

The NSC will feature a compelling agenda including keynote addresses, panel discussions, technical sessions, and a vibrant space science and technology exhibition. Presentations will span scientific, policy, and technical realms, encouraging interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration to address pressing global challenges.

Moreover, the NSC offers unparalleled networking opportunities and platforms for showcasing groundbreaking innovations. Special events tailored for youth participation underscore the conference’s commitment to promoting equality, diversity, inclusion, and access (EDIA) within the space science community.
