Amsterdam Space Symposium
The Amsterdam Space Symposium isn’t just another industry conference. Instead, they promise to deliver something more: a meeting place for big ideas, groundbreaking collaborations, and real action
"We're a convergence of diverse minds who grasp that space holds the key to tackling Earth's biggest challenges."
Happening on 3 & 4 March 2026 at the historic Beurs van Berlage in Amsterdam, this event brings together innovators, decision-makers, scientists, entrepreneurs and thinkers who believe that space isn’t just about exploration. We live in a world shaped by space every day: from navigation and global communications to weather forecasts and environmental monitoring. The Amsterdam Space Symposium highlights how space technologies and services are central to solving major challenges like security, climate change, infrastructure and sustainable development. Over two days you’ll dive into thought-provoking keynotes, interactive breakout sessions, lightning talks and round tables, explore ideas across disciplines, and create new partnerships that stretch from science to industry and beyond.
Why meet S[&]T?
Because space solutions only matter if they work in the real world.
The Amsterdam Space Symposium brings together key players to share ideas, developments and achievements in the field of space technology, space infrastructure and space applications, to address challenges in defence and environment.
For S[&]T, this aligns directly with our mission: Space for a Safer Life.
For the past 25 years, we have been transforming space data into actionable insights that support better decision-making. That shared vision is why S[&]T is proud to be a Silver Sponsor of the Amsterdam Space Symposium.
At the symposium, our CCO, Kirsten Drost, will present Space for a Safer Life.
The session explores how space and technology can help organisations anticipate risks, respond effectively to disruptions, and protect what matters most, from environmental monitoring to security and defence applications.
Space for a Safer Life is not only our mission, but it's also the purpose behind every S[&]T project and the reason we actively contribute to the Amsterdam Space Symposium.

Description:
In this session, we explore how the power of space and technology can create a safer, more resilient life on Earth. For 25 years, we have combined science, technology and expertise to help organisations make better decisions in an increasingly complex world. ‘Space for a safer life’ is not just our mission but the purpose behind every project: from monitoring our environment and managing natural resources to strengthening resilience against risks and disruptions. By turning data into actionable insights, we empower partners to anticipate challenges, respond effectively, and protect what matters most.
Our experience spans space, defence and environmental monitoring. With this knowledge, we deliver solutions that bridge research and real-world application, ensuring decisions are not only informed but also future proof.
After 25 years, Space for a Safer Life continues to drive our vision for the future.
