CubeSatPlus 2026 will take place from 31 August to 2 September 2026 at the UNSW Kensington Campus, bringing together the people building, launching, operating and supporting real small satellite missions.
The event begins with an optional hands-on RASCube CubeSat Workshop on Monday, 31 August, followed by the two-day CubeSatPlus Conference on 1 and 2 September.
Designed for "doers", the program focuses on practical insights, technical challenges, lessons learned and open discussion with the teams delivering missions and developing new capabilities across the sector. Delegates will hear from current and recent mission teams, emerging companies, researchers and industry leaders working at the forefront of CubeSat and small satellite development.
This year's program places a greater emphasis on engaging students and early-career professionals entering the space sector, while continuing important conversations around diversity, mission sustainability and end-of-life mission reflections.
CubeSatPlus is intentionally different from larger, marketing-driven space events. It is built around genuine technical exchange, problem-solving and conversations with the people doing the real work.
Whether you're a student taking your first steps into the industry or an experienced professional planning, developing, launching or supporting space missions, CubeSatPlus is where you'll meet your community.
