"When people hear 'space', they still tend to think of astronauts, scientists and rockets. But there is a much bigger workforce beneath that – the people who will build, operate, maintain and support the technology and infrastructure the sector needs."

"There is a huge amount of ambition around the growth of the UK space sector, but ultimately that ambition can only be realised if we have the people with the skills to deliver it."

"Talent is everywhere, but opportunity isn't, and we want to make sure people from every background can see that there could be a place for them in this industry."
