Dr. Nate Dailey explores how to reduce conflict and promote long-term cooperation in space through strategic governance, behavioral economics, and private sector innovation. With decades of experience in aerospace and policy, Dailey presents five concrete strategies for building a sustainable space economy.

He explains how companies can lead in infrastructure development, why orbital congestion must be addressed, and how new economic models—like satellite salvage markets—can emerge. This session connects engineering, diplomacy, and business in a practical way for leaders seeking clarity on space policy.

Takeaways:
• New space governance models will shape commercial access and stability
• Behavioral design can reduce misperception and risk in space
• Industry-led infrastructure will drive economic sustainability
