For more than a decade, SatSummit has brought together leaders from across the satellite, Earth observation, and geospatial communities to explore the technologies, ideas, and challenges shaping our world.
Taylor Geospatial is excited to be a part of the next chapter as SatSummit returns with two upcoming editions:
- St. Louis, Missouri: November 18-19, 2026 at The Post Building
- Lisbon, Portugal: March 16-17, 2027
Previously hosted in Libson and Washington D.C., SatSummit is expanding its footprint while staying true to its core mission: creating space for meaningful conversations about the future of our field.
Together with Common Space and Development Seed, we look forward to convening practitioners, researchers, policymakers, entrepreneurs, nonprofits, and technology leaders for two days of discussion, debate, and connection November 18-19, 2026 at The Post Building.
Located at 900 N. Tucker Blvd, The Post Building is a premier $70-million redevelopment of the former St. Louis Post-Dispatch headquarters, transformed into the epicenter of St. Louis’ rapidly growing geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) and fintech ecosystem.
About SatSummit
The satellite and geospatial sectors are entering a period of rapid change. Artificial intelligence is reshaping how Earth observation data is analyzed and applied. Commercial and government priorities are increasingly intertwined. Questions around competition, public access to data, funding, ethics, and long-term impact are becoming more urgent than ever.
SatSummit St. Louis will create space for the conversations our community needs right now—not only about what technology can do, but about who benefits, who decides, and what kind of future we want to build.
Topics will include:
- Sustaining community resources as funding landscapes shift
- The dual-use dilemma and when satellite imagery serves both humanitarian and military ends
- How humanitarian and climate organizations are doing mission-critical work with less
- GeoAI in practice: what works, what’s hype, and who benefits
- Commercial imagery, government pressure and the price of access
- And more!
Additional details on speakers, sponsorship opportunities, registration, and programming will be announced in the coming weeks.
Join us in St. Louis this November!
