IAF Global Space Leaders Summit

Launched in 2024, the IAF Global Space Leaders Summit is a premier platform for high-level dialogue, uniting global space leaders. This unique meeting brings together heads of space agencies and offices to foster partnerships and shape the future of space governance and cooperation.

This landmark event provides a unique opportunity for global space leaders from established space nations and emerging space countries to unite and discuss critical issues on neutral grounds and in a cooperative spirit.

In recognition of the leadership demonstrated by the participants, the International Astronautical Federation presents the unique IAF Global Space Leader’s Pin specially designed for this event. This pin, featuring a moonstone, symbolizes excellence in leadership and is engraved with a unique serial number to honour the leader's esteemed role in the space sector. Recognizing the crucial need for such a platform for collaboration, and following the success of the inaugural session, the next edition of the IAF Global Space Leaders Summit has already been announced. It will take place on 30 September 2025 in Sydney, Australia, in conjunction with the 76th International Astronautical Congress (IAC 2025).
