What Smart Money Looks For: Due Diligence in the Emerging Space Economy
Abstract: Investors are deploying capital into the commercial space sector at an accelerating pace, but the analytical frameworks borrowed from traditional industries often miss what actually drives value in satellite and space tech businesses. This session draws on frontline experience conducting due diligence for global investors, including two emerging space technology assessments that informed $800M+ in combined investment. Attendees will learn how sophisticated buyers evaluate market readiness, technology maturity, and business model viability – and what founders, operators, and leaders can do to strengthen their investment narratives before they reach the diligence table.
Proposed Format: Moderated panel discussion
Possible panelists, pending schedule alignment: Mark Boggett – Seraphim, Filip Kocian – Intersections Advisory Group, can ask others once session is confirmed.
