We’re looking forward to the National Earth Observation Conference, organised by the National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO) with an inspiring programme featuring Space4Climate members.

The three days of knowledge-sharing and showcasing includes a plenary by our Chair, Beth Greenaway, Head of Earth Observation and Climate at the UK Space Agency and a session chaired by our Climate Services Development Manager, Krupa Nanda Kumar.

The audience will be the UK Earth Observation community across research, government and industry. The face-to-face event provides a unique opportunity to engage with key stakeholders and leaders in the sector. The programme includes presentations, posters, exhibitions, workshops and networking.
