If there’s one thing aspiring space startup founders have in common, it’s the need to secure funding — massive amounts of funding. Space tech of any variety doesn’t come cheap, but the good news is you can find access to funding opportunities at TC Sessions: Space 2021, which takes flight December 14-15.

On the flip side of that very expensive coin, it takes a special kind of investor to gamble a ton of money — not to mention their reputation — on startups expanding the frontier of technology.

Those are precisely the types of investors you’ll find at TC Sessions: Space. They’ll present on various panels, engage with attendees and answer your burning questions about funding a sustainable space economy. What’s more, they’ll be on the lookout for suitable candidates for their portfolios.
