How to build a thriving lunar ecosystem with Steve Isakowitz | Equity Podcast
4At this year's TechCrunch Disrupt in San Francisco, President and CEO of the Aerospace Corporation Steve Isakowitz and Agency Chief Technologist at NASA A.C. Charanya Charania took the stage to discuss a literal moonshot: how to build a thriving lunar ecosystem. Today on Equity, we’re taking you behind the scenes of TechCrunch Disrupt once again, this time with Devin Coldewey at the helm.
For those keeping track, Devin’s kept the Equity crew up to date on space startups over the past few months, including Starfish Space’s $29 million round and, more recently, SpaceX’s second commercial deal for the Starship lunar lander with Lunar Outpost.
Listen to the full conversation to hear Devin and Steve Isakowitz discuss:
• What the path ahead looks like for space startups
• The shift away from government-dominated space programs to a more commercial landscape
• And what’s in store for Aerospace Corporation in 2025.
