Looking beyond the visible spectrum has yet to break through into the mainstream despite being commonplace in industries and defense. The co- founder of Pixxel will join us at the Los Angeles event on December 6 to explain why this tech matters.

Satellites can detect things like pollution, the hydration level of soil or concentrations of desirable minerals with the help of hyperspectral imagery. With a new approach that slices the wider spectrum into thin slices, very specific detections can be made.

A $25 million A round was raised earlier this year by the young founders, who were graduates of BITS Pilani in Rajasthan, India. As many industries, the military, and climate-monitoring authorities see the benefits of hyperspectral image data, the two are in pole position.

Existing interest from stakeholders in this area, from climate activists to gas and oil companies, is being reinforced by the new push toward ESG. It's easy to see the strategic importance of this type of data, which is why Ahmed will be joining us for a discussion of the evolving dual-use sector.

The space is in Los Angeles. If you buy your pass today, you will be able to learn about the latest space tech from the industry's most beautiful minds, network for opportunities and build a stronger startup to the stars.
