Public vs. Private Ventures and the Changing Space Paradigm

Celebrating 11 years of community support programming, the Key Executive Leadership Programs is delighted to announce the 2022 Key FEDTalks Speaker Series. This year's focus is on the future of leadership and public service. This series will feature discussions on Neurodiversity in Leadership, Public vs. Private Sector, Trust in the Federal Government, and The Great Resignation.

Join us for this very exciting FEDTalks session as we explore the changing space paradigm over the years, moving from government directed to the new commercial space economy, and what to anticipate in the next decade. Our esteemed panelists and moderator will discuss the role of government in this new paradigm and how NASA enabled its birth and is nurturing its growth. We'll cover other Space-related issues such as regulatory, property rights, and geopolitical impacts as well look at the role of the “big personalities” (e.g., Bezos, Branson, and Musk) currently involved and consider the longer-term effects.

Participants who attend three or more live sessions will be eligible for a certificate of participation at the end of the series.
