The agreement, formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), aligns Space Foundation’s global convening and educational platforms with the SFA’s professional and policy network to explore opportunities that support shared goals. Both organizations recognize that a strong, innovative, and skilled space workforce is vital to national leadership and global security.
“This MOU is an important step toward a unified strategy for advancing America’s space priorities,” said Heather Pringle, Space Foundation’s CEO. “By combining our strengths, we can more effectively build the space workforce of the future and raise public awareness of the domain’s importance to our collective security and prosperity.”
“The Space Force Association is thrilled to formalize this relationship with Space Foundation,” said Bill “Hippie” Woolf, CEO of the Space Force Association. “Their extensive reach in education and industry events, paired with our deep network in the defense and policy communities, creates a powerful synergy that will benefit all sectors of the space ecosystem.”
The partnership will be managed by designated liaisons from each organization who will meet regularly to identify and evaluate joint projects. The MOU is effective for two years and establishes a non-binding framework for exploring and formalizing specific initiatives.
