Space the Final Frontier. The Top 3 CIS-Lunar Opportunities & Why They Will Transform Commercial Space.

 

The Top 3 Cislunar Opportunities & Why They Will Transform Commercial Space   Wednesday, October 19 @ 12 PM EST The CIS-Lunar economy is described as everything from the greatest opportunity in investment history to the worst near-term expenditure in recent government history. Last month, we kicked the tires and looked under the hood to see if this "cislunar economy" idea was real. The New York Space Business Roundtable continues The Cislunar Economy REAL Talk Discussion & Investment Series this month by exploring some specific opportunities.  Our second roundtable in the series presents:  The Top 3 CIS-Lunar Opportunities & Why They Will Transform Commercial Space. NOTE: The registration link provides access to all three episodes in the series. Following our Significant Digits report by SpaceNews, we will have a special report from the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS).  Presented by Nicholas Reese, Deputy Director for Emerging Technology Policy, DHS will report on the introduction of the anti-satellite missile testing norm presented by USA Vice President Harris as a possible UN resolution and its potential impact on ensuring greater international security for space and the Cislunar economy expansion. This is important for anyone involved in Cislunar activity. Also in the series: November 16: So You Think You Want to Be an Astropreneur??

What Is JDEIA and Why Is It So Elusive in Peacebuilding? Justice, diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility (JDEIA) is often seen as an elusive concept rather than a concrete set of values and needs. USIP’s Joseph Sany defines JDEIA as a peacebuilding practice and explains why it’s so important for USIP to bring people together to discuss it.
