The deputy prime minister, Étienne Schneider, is off to New York next week to address a Luxembourg space resources conference hosted by the Luxembourg Trade & Investment Office in New York on behalf of the Ministry of Economy on 5 June.
The conference will provide up-to-date details on Luxembourg’s SpaceResources.lu initiative and on innovations in the space industry sector. With a focus on investment opportunities and financing of space exploration, expert corporate and investor insights will be provided.
The aim of the conference is to initiate a dialogue on the future opportunities and challenges the Luxembourg Government faces with its initiative, and to exchange ideas on other similar projects that are being developed in the U.S. and elsewhere. As the conference will focus on financing and investment, the strong financial hub in New York City offers an ideal environment to nourish this exchange.
Next to Deputy Prime Minister Étienne Schneider, other high-level representatives from leading space industry and corporate finance firms will take part, notably in two panel discussions specifically focusing on space industry and investor perspectives.
