The Call for Abstracts for GSOC 2027 is now open!
Submit your Abstract by 13 November 2026!
We are delighted to invite you to contribute your expertise and vision to the inaugural IAF Global Space and Oceans Conference (GSOC 2027), organized by the International Astronautical Federation (IAF) and proudly hosted by the Maldives Space Research Organization (MSRO).
Taking place 3–5 May 2027 in the Republic of Maldives, GSOC 2027 will convene leading voices from across the global space and ocean communities around the compelling theme: “The Ocean of Space for the Oceans of Earth”
At a time when the boundaries between space and ocean technologies are rapidly evolving, GSOC 2027 will place this powerful convergence at center stage. The Conference will provide a distinguished international platform for senior representatives of space agencies, maritime organizations, governments, industry, policymakers, academia, NGOs, and the wider ocean community to exchange knowledge, forge new partnerships, and shape the future of space-enabled solutions for our oceans.
Submit your 400-word abstract by 13 November 2026 and join an international community at the forefront of this new era of space-ocean collaboration.
