Thanks for attending the Game Changing Technology Industry Day. Video presentations and pdf versions are both available below.
The Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) hosted the Game Changing Technology Industry Day to engage the aerospace industry and identify potential areas of common interest and synergy with NASA. The objective of the meeting was to enhance industry awareness and understanding of the mid-level technology investments within the Game Changing Development portfolio.
The Game Changing Technology Industry Day focused on 11 current technologies that are potential targets for commercial and academic partnerships. Attendees heard from project managers about the exciting work going going on within STMD and had the opportunity to see hardware and ask questions in person.
The agenda and recorded presentations can be found below.
