Some of the speakers are Cecilia Hertz, CEO at Umbilical Design who shares a talk on collaborations with NASA and the european space-organisation ESA. Carolina Gomez Lagerlöf from Patentverket (Agency for patents) dives into patents in the intersection between space-research and science-fiction and Tess Lindberg tells the storie about Jerrie Cobb that could have been – and should have been, the first lady in space. A steady supply of web, code and startup talk will also fill the three halls of the un-conferance.
