pLEO Catalyst: Constellations at Scale (In-Person)
Join us for an in-depth convening of founders, operators, investors, and government leaders focused on the future of proliferated Low Earth Orbit (pLEO) constellation operations. This in-person session will bring together stakeholders across the ecosystem to explore the technical, operational, and commercialization pathways required to enable scalable, autonomous constellation architectures.
The discussion will center on advancing the technologies necessary to support resilient proliferated systems, including autonomous operations software, optical inter-satellite links, network orchestration, edge computing, and spectrum management. Participants will gain insight into how these capabilities can move from development to deployment, and how public and private stakeholders can coordinate to accelerate integration into operational missions over the next three to five years.

A Catalyst is a curated event that brings together startups, investors, industry partners, and government stakeholders around a defined, commercially relevant problem area aligned to NASA priorities. Catalysts are structured to surface real companies, real technologies, and real market pathways, creating early visibility into solutions that could advance into initiatives like NASA SBIR Ignite.
