Monday, November 14, 2016

Washington Office Director Victoria Samson spoke at the USGIF Smallsat workshop, a two-day event held as part of the opening for GEOINT Community Week. She participated in the unclassified session on Nov. 14, 2016, where she talked on the policy panel, "Are Policy Changes Needed?" She discussed the need to include smallsat operators when examining the future of space traffic management, think about how the international community approaches norm development for space and how that may differ for smallsats, and debate how best to provide a sustainable market of launch vehicles for smallsats.
