Space Sustainability Forum 2026
12-14 October 2026
Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Co‑organized by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the Communications, Space & Technology Commission (CST) of Saudi Arabia, the 3rd edition of the Space Sustainability Forum will be held as part of the 2026 Global Space Connectivity & Sustainability Events. This flagship three‑day initiative brings together Connecting the World from the Skies and the ITU Space Sustainability Forum under the theme “Connected Earth, Sustainable Space.”

Building on the strong momentum of previous editions of both events, this expanded 2026 platform reflects the growing interdependence between satellite connectivity and the sustainable use of space. By bringing these two communities together, the event aims to foster more integrated dialogue across policy, industry and academia at a time of rapid transformation in the space sector.

With rapid advancements in the space sector, this event is a must‑attend for policymakers, industry leaders, regulators and space experts committed to the sustainable and responsible use of space.
