PLENARY PROGRAMME

The IAC 2026 Call for Plenaries and Highlight Lectures is now OPEN!

Under the powerful theme The World Needs More Space, IAC 2026 calls on all of us — scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, policymakers, academicians, and students — to offer solutions, spark dialogue, and push the boundaries of what space can mean for humanity. This theme is not only about outer space; it is about making space for innovation, sustainability, diversity, and global unity.

The IAC 2026 Programme will feature Plenaries, Highlight Lectures, and Late Breaking News Sessions, all offering high-level speakers the opportunity to present and discuss the latest trends and insights in space research, technology, exploration, and beyond.

The IAC 2026 Call for Plenaries and Highlight Lectures is open to all IAF Member Organizations until Friday 6 February 2026 (23:59 CET)
