Expo attendee numbers have also grown significantly. Over 1,000 companies from across commercial spacecraft, satellite systems, launch vehicle and spacecraft design, engineering and testing attended the 2013 event, up 15% from the prior year.

2014 advance registration figures counted this week revealed broader than anticipated space industry involvement from R&D scientists, entrepreneurs and program management through to C-level attendees, say organizers.

"Another key trend we are seeing is the increasing involvement of the design, manufacturing and test engineering community, including senior engineering management participation from the primes," according to Gordy McHattie, Event Director. "There's more packed into Space Tech Expo & Conference than ever before to ensure time out of the office is well spent," he added.

• Networking reception on Tuesday April 1 from 5pm
• Free-to-Attend Sessions in the exhibition hall, offering perspectives on key issues
