Over the past five years, the Council has grown to represent all sectors of the industry including commercial, civil, and military space. As a forum for space-related companies, the council brings the collective power of its affiliation with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and its diverse members into a single, unified voice that is used in advocating member interests to policymakers.
Unmatched in its membership diversity, the Council provides U.S. companies a unique opportunity to take a principle role in developing and advocating policies and programs that ensure that the U.S. continues to be a leader in the space marketplace. A respected authority in the space community, the Council uses its influential leadership role to create a better business environment for space companies.
