Laser Delta
Enabling sovereign and secure communications from space.
The open ecosystem platform for Dutch laser satellite communication. Bringing together industry, research and government to advance Europe's capabilities in optical satellite communication, connecting ground and space.
Meet the ecosystem this summer
LSC Consortium Day
Netherlands, 30 June
The LSC Consortium Day brings together the organizations that make up the Laser Delta ecosystem. Six roundtables put engineers and end users at the same table around the technical work packages that define the future of laser satellite communication in the Netherlands.
This is exactly what Laser Delta is built for: connecting the people working on shared challenges in the Dutch laser satcom sector.
NTN Forum Colloquium & General Assembly
Noordwijk, Aug/Sep
NTN Forum is the ESA-led alliance that steers 5G and 6G non-terrestrial network (NTN) standardisation within 3GPP. At its Colloquium and General Assembly at ESA-ESTEC, there will also be a discussion on the role of Free space optics (FSO) for NTN. The synergy between FSO and 5G/6G NTN can be explored through discussions with and demonstrations from the 5G/6G NTN community. That makes it relevant if you are active in laser satcom. Three in-person days to meet stakeholders across the value chain and follow the latest developments in non-terrestrial networks.
Bengaluru Space Expo 2026
Bengaluru, India, Sept
The 9th edition of this international space conference and exhibition, organized by ISRO, INSPACe, NSIL and CII, brings together global space stakeholders under the theme "Harnessing Space for Global Progress: Innovation, Policy and Growth." Given the longstanding space cooperation between India and the Netherlands, it is a relevant opportunity for the Dutch space ecosystem to connect with the Indian space industry.
