California Space Day Sacramento 2007






This is an opportunity for space enterprise stakeholders to meet and discuss space policy and regulatory issues with state legislators and executive branch key officials. Our goal will be to advocate a positive, supportive business climate in California by educating policymakers about the benefits, economic scope, and needs of the space enterprise community. Participants will assemble for orientation in the morning, be placed into teams for appointed meetings throughout the day, lunch with members of the Governor’s Administration, and enjoy a relaxed reception atmosphere that evening with legislative leaders.
