Advanced Manufacturing for Space: From Earth Qualification to In-Orbit Production

The workshop explores the concrete pathways through which non-space companies can access the Space Economy, combining regulatory, industrial, and technological aspects.

It will examine the main requirements for entering the sector - including certifications, standards, insurance aspects, and risk management - alongside examples of technology transfer from advanced industries such as automotive and motorsport.

The objective is to provide a clear and practical guide for companies interested in diversifying into the space sector, highlighting both the enabling conditions and the opportunities offered by skills and technologies already developed on Earth.
