Special Rate for Military and Government Personnel
The Space Symposium will be held April 8 -11 at The Broadmoor Hotel, and is expected to bring together more than 9,000 global participants from all sectors of the space spectrum to address opportunities and issues.
The Space Foundation has adjusted its rate for active duty military and government personnel who register for the Space Symposium, lowering the cost to 2010 pricing. The government/military rate for the four-day Symposium is now $790.
The active duty military and government personnel rate includes admission to Space Symposium general sessions and receptions and to the Lockheed Martin Exhibit Center, plus one ticket to each dinner and a ticket to one luncheon. This special rate does not apply to contractors who work for or with the government or military.
A separate Cyber 1.3 event will be held on Monday, April 8, at The Broadmoor Hotel and requires separate registration. The active government/military rate for Cyber 1.3 is just $395. Or, when combined with Space Symposium registration, the total for both events is $1,140.
