Four times a year the people and organizations building Arizona’s space economy meet in one room. Three working conversations and one Congress. What the room says gets added to the Blueprint, and the Blueprint decides what the market builds in Arizona.
THE CYCLE
Four activations a year
Three Blueprint Conversations and one Space Congress, every year, on the same calendar. The conversations are group driven and action focused. Congress brings the whole state together. Each conversation runs on the same voting platform Congress uses, so by April the room already knows the format and the tools have already been tested.

WHO'S IN THE ROOM
Open application, curated room
Anyone can apply
Applications are open. We accept through registration so the room stays balanced across industry, government, universities, and capital. Between 30-60 people, by design.
Partners participate
Each partner takes one question in their sector and answers it in front of the room, on the record. That is the sponsorship.
Everyone leaves with the record
The synthesis goes out after each conversation. What the room said is what gets published, and it carries into the Blueprint.
The Blueprint showed us what Arizona has. The Conversations reveal what we need. Congress determines what we build together.
WHERE IT LEADS
Every initiative maps to the Blueprint. The Arizona Space Economy Coalition came out of the coordination gap. SOVERYN and Space came out of the narrative gap. What the conversations surface this year sets the agenda for Space Congress, Arizona in April.
