Trajectory Sheffield 2023

Trajectory is a roadshow of regional ecosystem events that are run by the UK Space Agency Accelerator to showcase what regions are doing to support the space sector and the next generation of space businesses – the future of space. The aim of Trajectory is to amplify opportunities for entrepreneurs who are a part of the UK Space Agency Accelerator Community by connecting them to the wider ecosystem, customers, suppliers and investors.

On the 21st September 2023, Trajectory came to the Advanced Manufacturing and Research Centre at the University of Sheffield to showcase what Yorkshire can offer entrepreneurs, start ups and SMEs in the region – including expertise, connections, and support opportunities.

Trajectory’s agenda included presentations from:

• Jake Geer, Chief of Staff at the UK Space Agency, who introduced the Accelerator and its importance to the UK space sector and the UK Space Agency’s overall mission.
• Mike Stephens, CEO at Entrepreneurial Spark, who discussed what Yorkshire has to offer.
• Jonathan Bray, Senior Sector Engagement Manager for Defence and Space at the AMRC
• Carousel networking
• Pitching competition
