Program

CubeSatPlus 2026 will once again bring together the people actively building, launching, operating, and supporting Australia’s small satellite missions.

Across two days, the program will focus on practical mission delivery, technical problem-solving, emerging capability, and honest conversations about the realities of working in the space sector. From mission updates and launch experiences through to new technologies, start-ups, and lessons learned, the program is designed for people doing the work, and those preparing to enter the industry.

The format remains highly interactive, encouraging discussion and collaboration across industry, research, government, and the student community. This year’s program will also place greater emphasis on engaging younger people entering the sector, alongside important conversations around mission sustainability, end-of-life reflections, and the future direction of Australia’s space capability.

Speakers and sessions will continue to be announced as they are confirmed, with the draft agenda evolving over the coming months.
