About this event

Scotland is a major player in the international space sector — Glasgow builds more small satellites than anywhere else in Europe — and the field is growing faster than the talent pipeline behind it. Together in Tech Edinburgh brings people working in the sector to CodeBase to talk about how they got in and what the roles actually involve. The framing is deliberate: most jobs in space tech are software, data, operations and commercial rather than aerospace engineering. Free, and well-suited to anyone considering a sideways move.
