This year the Membership Team took on their most ambitious project to date, the Cluster Events. Four brand new events were held simultaneously in different regions of the UK on February 4. Held in-person in Edinburgh, Cranfield, Liverpool and virtually in London, the aim of these was to foster connections between UKSEDS branches and members across regions and stimulate engagement with leading space academics and companies.

With over 20 speakers, nearly 300 of our charity’s members connected with the space sector, from both academic and commercial perspectives. Distinguished academics such as Martin Hendry, Leigh Fletcher, Jennifer Kingston, and esteemed organisations like Space Scotland, BAE Systems and Skyrora were present, to name a few. The events provided networking sessions, opportunities to ask leading industry professionals questions, and a panel discussion.
Now, along with the whole UKSEDS team, we're looking forward to the National Student Space Conference 2023. See you all there!
