Joint i-SAIRAS & iSpaRo Conference 2026

Two leading conferences. One joint platform.

From 3–6 November 2026, Cologne, Germany, will host a unique premiere: for the first time, the International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Automation in Space (i-SAIRAS) and the International Conference on Space Robotics (iSpaRo) will be held jointly at Confex.

This combined format brings together two well-established conference communities, offering participants a comprehensive programme that spans the latest advances in space AI, robotics and automation. The conference will feature high-level keynotes, technical sessions, workshops, expert panels, and dedicated opportunities for professional exchange.

Located in one of Europe’s central hubs for space activities—at the heart of ESA and DLR—the venue provides an ideal setting for fostering international collaboration between industry, academia, and government.

Complemented by a carefully curated social programme, the joint i-SAIRAS and iSpaRo conference offers an exceptional platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and the development of new partnerships.
