DBT Space Technology Supplier Showcase, 10-13 February 2025, Florida

The Department for Business & Trade is pleased to follow-up the original announcement regarding the planned trade mission to the Cape Canaveral region of Florida, 10-13 February 2025, timed to coincide with Aerospace Defence Americas ‘Space Track’ day supported by colleagues at ADS.

Florida Space Technology Showcase

• The space cluster in Florida is one of the largest in the world with an estimated annual revenue of almost £20bn, with many more potential space customers and partners.
• Our host customer organisations – Blue Origin and L3Harris Space & Airborne Systems – will host business to business meetings with pre-selected UK technology and commodity suppliers.
• Additional networking events will be held with the regional space cluster. Representatives from Boeing, Lockheed Martin, SpaceX, Northrop Grumman, RTX and others will be invited to join these additional networking events supported by Space Florida.

Participation:

• Only companies that have been selected by Blue Origin and/or L3Harris will participate in the mission
• Participants that are selected by only one of the two host customers will be encouraged to make arrangements with other regional space companies during their downtime with support from Space Florida and DBT.
• No registration fee however all travel and accommodation costs are the responsibility of participants.

Representatives from L3Harris and Blue Origin have given DBT a list of capability and technology areas that are of interest to their supply chain and engineering team members. If you have technologies, products or services that match L3Harris or Blue Origin’s requirements and wish to participate then please fill in the attached blank capability form.

You may also have capabilities not on the list you believe will be of interest to L3Harris or Blue Origin – if so, we encourage you to submit a form.
DBT will take all submissions, collate into a Brochure and send to L3Harris and Blue Origin. They will select the companies for this mission.

Please contact us if you do NOT wish to share your submission with one of these two companies. Additionally, let us know if you wish to submit two separate Brochure returns for different capabilities.

Please send returns to both Bill Peterson bill.peterson@businessandtrade.gov.uk and David Malleson david.malleson2@businessandtrade.gov.uk
