Enterprise Space Category (ESC) Roundtable: Managing Supply Chain Risk in a Rapidly Evolving Space Sector
As the UK’s space ambitions accelerate, understanding and managing supply chain risk has never been more critical. This ESC‑hosted round table brings together government, industry, and strategic suppliers to explore the challenges and opportunities shaping resilience across the end‑to‑end space enterprise.
The session will examine emerging risk drivers, including global market pressures, component scarcity, industrial capacity, cyber threats, and dependency on critical technologies, while highlighting practical approaches to strengthening transparency, collaboration, and assurance throughout the supply chain.
Participants will have the opportunity to share perspectives, surface common pain points, and contribute to shaping a joined‑up, cross‑government view of supply chain resilience for future UK space programmes.
