The organizer describes a forum for spaceport facility executive managers from around the world.
It is most useful for spaceport managers, launch-site developers and their engineering and consulting partners, since the forum is framed around spaceport executives and speakers come from the FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation, Firefly Aerospace, Southern Launch and Space Port Japan Association. Consultancies such as RS&H, Merrick and Parsons sponsor and speak, so firms selling design and planning services will find relevant contacts; satellite operators or general space enthusiasts would get more from the larger events in the same week, such as SpaceCom.
Aerospace and spaceport professionals usually wear business casual, with blazers for speakers and sessions, and comfortable shoes suit the large Orange County Convention Center.
