SURREY SATELLITE TECHNOLOGY: THE FIRST 60 YEARS
VICTORIA IRWIN,
BUSINESS LINE MANAGER - EARTH OBSERVATION, SURREY SATELLITE TECHNOLOGY LTD. (SSTL)
PROGRAMME INTRO
Space is an extraordinary business and the UK is a world leader in the space sector punching above its weight in the space revolution. The turnover for the UK space industry has grown to almost £15 billion a year, with 40% of all small satellites currently in orbit are built in the UK.
In this particular sub-sector of the space industry, Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL) has been in existence for over 30 years. The business has firmly established itself as the world’s leading small satellite manufacturer. As its first 30 years just pass, SSTL is certainly looking forward to what the business will look like in the decades ahead, in the next 30 years.
This lecture will provide the audience an overview of how the company began, what the business is working on today and what it intends to do in the future. The talk will also discuss the common themes that have, and will continue, to influence SSTL’s approach to improve access to space.
CPD | CPD certificates of attendance will be endorsed for CEng, IEng or EngTech registration.
