SpaceBound 2026

Canadian partner Wilfred So will attend Space Canada's SpaceBound 2026 conference in Ottawa, Canada.

The three-day event brings together leaders from government, industry, academia and the investment community to examine the future of Canada’s space economy and the technologies driving it. Topics will include national space policy, sovereignty and security, satellite communications, Earth observation, commercial space technologies, robotics, environmental monitoring, climate intelligence and Canada’s role in the rapidly expanding global space economy.

Wilfred has a background in computer and electrical engineering and works with a wide range of clients in the Canadian space sector and aerospace industry, supporting them in developing their IP strategies, drafting and filing patents in a variety of technologies. He previously served as a director of the Canadian Space Commerce Association and is actively involved in space-related industry events and conferences. 

Wilfred has also written extensively about developments in the Canadian space sector, including recent articles about how NASA technology has transformed modern healthcare, and how Canadian robotics systems have repeatedly proven indispensable to international space programs as well as Canada’s investments to support Canadian space launch technology and collaboration with UK space sector companies, and a larger $1.3 billion commitment to invest in Canadian space related innovation and technologies. 

Together with our global space sector team, Wilfred also contributed to our recent round up of IP insights for World Space Week.
