Milbank LLP partner Dara Panahy will moderate a panel titled “Smallsat Markets Are Maturing; Funding is Disrupted – What’s Next?” at the SmallSat Symposium, on February 6, 2024 in Silicon Valley. Mr. Panahy will be joined by speakers from Promus Ventures, Munich Re Ventures, Generation Space, Summit Ridge Group and Lockheed Martin Ventures.

It is predicted that 2024 will bring significant change to the SmallSat market. Panelists will discuss SmallSat markets, including satellite funding, manufacturing, launch services and products/services, the current state of pre-growth stage companies, the US government’s support of SmallSat research & development and more.

Mr. Panahy, who leads the firm’s Transportation and Space practice in Washington, DC, focuses on the representation of satellite and space infrastructure operators, aerospace manufacturers, launch services providers, communications companies, banks, private equity firms and hedge funds in debt and equity offerings, project, structured and vendor financings, mergers & acquisitions, financial restructurings and in negotiating commercial contracts. Milbank’s Space Business Group distributes a roundup of space industry developments in Milbank's monthly Space Business Review newsletter.

The conference, which takes place February 6–8 in Mountain View, California, brings together leaders in the satellite industry and provide an environment for communication, connection and networking. Click here for more information on the 2024 SmallSat Symposium.
