SFA - Northeast Space Defense & Innovation Summit (NESDIS)Space Summit 2026, officially titled SFA - Northeast Space Defense & Innovation Summit, is a three-day forum hosted at the MITRE Bedford Campus in Bedford, Massachusetts, designed to assess and enhance the resilience, performance, and survivability of the Northeast space ecosystem. The event brings together government, industry, and academic stakeholders to evaluate current space capabilities and develop strategies that ensure uninterrupted delivery of critical space services such as satellite communications, positioning, navigation and timing, sensing, and electromagnetic waveform availability for both military and commercial users. The summit will place particular emphasis on the integration of space resilience with strategic mission priorities, including command, control, battlespace management, and broader modernization efforts that rely on the continued functionality and security of space-based systems. The event is organized by the Space Systems Command under the Department of the Air Force and is open to participants from the Department of Defense, private sector companies, and academic institutions. Registration is managed through a dedicated portal, and while no solicitation number or NAICS code is listed, the summit serves as a collaborative platform rather than a procurement event. Focus areas include advancing operational adaptability, strengthening partnerships across the space enterprise, and aligning innovation with national security imperatives in an increasingly contested and congested space environment. The summit aims to foster dialogue and coordinate efforts that will shape the future of resilient space services in the Northeast region and beyond.
