Global Collaborations

UK Space: In One Place

Space is a global industry, and since the beginning, international collaborations between businesses, academia and governments from all over the world have made the ‘impossible’ possible.

You can find just about everything the UK space industry has to offer right here, in one small area of southern England: the Space South Central region of Hampshire, Surrey and the Isle of Wight.

Close to London and with great air, sea, rail and road links, our three world-class universities and 170+ space-related companies work with organisations all over the world, providing a vast range of services and expertise.  

Funded by the UK Space Agency, Space South Central is your gateway to connect with the region’s space industry.

Find the right solutions for your project

We’re proud to have such a diverse range of space industry expertise concentrated in one compact region of the UK.  But for organisations and businesses around the world, researching and accessing that expertise can be challenging and time-consuming.

The Space South Central team can help you find the right people and organisations to drive your projects forward.

With our unrivalled regional knowledge and connections, we unite business networks, academic partnerships and funding streams.  From recommending an individual manufacturer or expert, to bringing together large-scale collaborative R&D or launch projects, we’re uniquely placed to give you free, impartial support and guidance.

Space industry connections you can trust

Space South Central exists to provide impartial, informed connections to boost space industry collaborations, innovation and growth.

The businesses, universities and organisations we represent don’t pay for introductions or membership, and neither do international organisations that are interested in working with them.

We also have links to UK government bodies, like the Department of Trade and Industry, that can offer tailored advice about investing and trading in the UK.
