Purpose:

To expose attendees to a potential new horizon; this horizon will vary year-to-year, with this year’s being the painting of a supply chain that can create a sustainable presence on the Moon and Mars.

Aim:

The aim of the summit is to ensure that those who attend will leave with not only an awareness of said horizons being a potential reality, but with a knowledge of their position within the supply chain that would be needed to make this a reality.
