A look at who attended SATELLITE & GovMilSpace 2026: the decision-makers, global delegations, and mission-driven organizations that defined this year’s event.
The SATELLITE audience has always attracted the people who shape the industry. In 2026, that held, with senior leadership and decision-makers representing the majority of the floor.
International delegations arrived from across six continents. Over 3,300 attendees traveled from outside the United States, representing governments, operators, manufacturers, and integrators from every major market in the sector.
Every segment of the satellite and space industry was under one roof, from the companies building the hardware to the capital financing the next generation of infrastructure.
With over 6,400 unique organizations represented, the floor brought together the sector’s anchoring programs alongside the challengers redefining what’s possible.
GovMilSpace brought together the military, intelligence community, civil space agencies, allied nations, and the defense industrial base in a dedicated program designed for the conversations that shape how government and industry align on space.
Attendees, speakers, and exhibiting companies shared their experience from SATELLITE & GovMilSpace 2026.
The SATELLITE mobile app became one of the most active business-facilitation tools at the event, enabling attendees to set meetings before they ever walked through the doors.
Attendees used the app to identify targets, send meeting requests, and lock in time at an exhibitor’s booth or in the dedicated Meeting Hub, creating a pipeline of conversations that might otherwise never happen across 60,000+ sq ft of show floor.
Attendees registered interest across every major category of the satellite and space ecosystem, from core infrastructure to emerging capabilities.
