Experia Events, the organiser of the Singapore Airshow, has officially launched the inaugural Space Summit @ Singapore Airshow 2026, to be held from 2 to 3 February 2026. As part of this launch, AAIS has been introduced as the partner for the Singapore Pavilion at the Summit.

This represents a natural extension of AAIS’s long-standing role as facilitator of the Singapore Pavilion at the Singapore Airshow since its inception in 2008. For nearly two decades, AAIS has successfully presented Singapore’s aerospace companies on the global stage, presenting a cohesive and compelling showcase of our diverse ecosystem and capabilities. With the emergence of the space sector, AAIS is now well-positioned to leverage its established networks and strengths as a trade association to support this high-growth domain.

A Nationally Significant New Platform

The new Space Summit @ Singapore Airshow, held in conjunction with the biennial Singapore Airshow, marks a strategic expansion of the event’s scope—bridging the realms of air and space. Endorsed by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) and supported by the Office for Space Technology & Industry (OSTIn), the addition of the Summit to the Singapore Airshow reflects the growing momentum in the global space economy and Singapore’s increasing ambition and investment in the domain.

Under the theme “New Frontiers, Shared Futures: Advancing Space for the Good of Humanity,” the Summit will highlight the growing role of space technologies in areas such as connectivity, navigation, climate resilience, and security; sectors where Singapore is actively shaping future-ready solutions. It is set to feature curated conference tracks, a dedicated exhibition zone, and business networking opportunities focused on satellite communications, launch technologies, space sustainability, and other developments shaping the industry.

Meanwhile, the Singapore Pavilion at the Space Summit will provide local companies with a high-visibility gateway to present their technologies, solutions, and innovations to a truly international audience. Together, the partners aim to align Singapore’s industry presence across sectors and deliver a harmonised, compelling representation of the nation’s commercial strengths on the global stage.

Close Collaboration for the Next Frontier

A launch event for the Space Summit was held on 26 May 2025 at the EDB Lounge, bringing together key representatives from Singapore’s aerospace and space ecosystems. The event signalled growing momentum for cross-sector collaboration and innovation as Singapore positions itself for greater participation in the global space economy.

During the event, AAIS Chief Executive Sia Kheng Yok highlighted the association’s strategic decision in 2024 to expand its focus to include the space industry through the creation of the Singapore Space Community. This move reflects the growing interest among AAIS members in exploring the rapidly evolving space sector and allows AAIS to better support companies in this emerging field. To further strengthen the ecosystem, AAIS also published the first-ever physical edition of the Singapore Space Industry Directory 2025/26. This comprehensive resource maps national capabilities and underscores Singapore’s growing role in the global space economy. An updated edition is planned for release in time for the 2026 Space Summit.

We invite Singapore-based space and aerospace companies to be part of the pioneers driving the nation’s ambitions in space. Connect with nearly 60,000 trade and government attendees expected at the Singapore Airshow and the Space Summit.
