Navigating the Challenges of Counterspace Capabilities and Multidomain Integration in Space Defence Operations

With over 70 nations now having satellites in orbit, space has become a highly competitive arena. Major powers like the USA, Russia, and China are rapidly expanding their military space capabilities such as advanced military satellite technologies and anti-satellite weapons. In addition to these state actors, commercial entities are playing an increasingly significant role. The space domain has become increasingly contested, with industry and governments driving innovation and expanding access to space.

Now in its 7th year, the Space Operations Summit continues to be the premier event for those shaping the future of military space domain. As we move into 2025, the space and defence landscape is becoming increasingly complex. The need for NATO and its allies to invest in robust and resilient space defence strategies is very clear.
