As the global space industry expands at an unprecedented rate, the demand for a highly skilled workforce capable of supporting cutting-edge technologies, complex missions, and emerging innovations has never been greater. However, a critical gap is emerging between the existing workforce and the future needs of the space sector. To address this challenge, ASTRAIOS will be taking the stage at Space-Comm Expo 2025 in London on March 11, contributing to an important panel discussion on the global workforce challenges facing the space sector.
Space-Comm Expo, held at ExCeL London, is the UK’s leading event for the space industry. The event attracts global leaders from NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA), the United Nations, government, defense, and academia, all coming together to discuss the future of space innovation, technology, and workforce development.

The panel discussion featuring ASTRAIOS partners, Space Skills Alliance, will focus on the increasing skills gap in the space industry and the urgent need to align education and training programs with the evolving demands of the sector. As space missions become more ambitious and technology continues to advance, the workforce must adapt to keep pace. The discussion will explore the disconnect between current training provisions and industry needs, as well as potential strategies for creating a sustainable and future-proof workforce capable of driving innovation in aerospace and beyond.
ASTRAIOS is at the forefront of workforce innovation, conducting research into skills development, training programs, and policy recommendations that can help shape the next generation of space professionals. At Space-Comm Expo, ASTRAIOS will share insights on how to bridge the gap between education, industry, and the rapidly changing demands of the space sector.
