Silicon Valley Space Week 2026

It is held at the Computer History Museum, 1401 N Shoreline Blvd, Mountain View, CA 94043.

Senior commercial and national-security space decision-makers attend, including funders, builders, operators, and buyers.

The audience includes funders, builders, operators, and buyers from the commercial and national-security space communities.

It is most useful for business development leads, investors and program buyers in commercial and defense space who want senior conversations in one place, since the audience is described as funders, builders, operators and buyers and the sponsor list includes Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Airbus U.S., Rocket Lab and Astranis. Early-career engineers and students would get less from it, and suppliers with no satellite or national-security angle will find the sponsor mix, heavy on satellite communications and defense primes, a narrow fit.

Attendees at space industry conferences in Silicon Valley usually wear business casual, such as slacks or chinos with a collared shirt or blazer, with defense-side attendees leaning a little more formal and startup people in smart jeans. Comfortable shoes help over three days at a museum venue.
