TOULOUSE SPACE SHOW 2012

Toulouse Space Show 2012 goes beyond an exhibition, and features an actual international business convention with preprogrammed appointments to bring together industrialists, corporate groups and developers of space solutions and applications on the one hand, and users of these solutions and applications on the other, to establish contacts, buy or sell skills.

Environment, transport and mobility, health: the increasing importance of Space systems for society

In the age of digital technology and mobility, satellites are with us at all times, enabling mobile phones, television, Internet, weather forecasts and telemedicine, navigation systems and personal healthcare services. In the future, these applications will all play an even greater role in our private and professional lives. All members of society, whether government or local authorities, professionals from industry, agriculture or healthcare, NGOs, architects, urban planners and others, are now aware of the contribution and growing importance of satellite technology.

The objective of this year’s Toulouse Space Show is to enable developers of solutions and Space applications to discuss ideas with users and imagine with them the solutions and services of the future.

The 2010 Toulouse Space Show was attended by nearly a thousand participants from 32 countries, as well as 81 exhibitors. For this year’s event, the organisers have been contacted by many new countries wishing to be represented in 2012.

This 3rd edition of the Toulouse Space Show will focus on four symposia:

-Space Appli: the 4th International Conference on Space Applications, with demonstrations of services and user testimonials.

-Space&Law: 1st International Space & Law Forum, to address all the legal issues and solutions related to the use of Space data.

-KM: 4th International Conference on Knowledge Management for Space Missions.<
