Building the new backbone of space at TechCrunch Disrupt 2025

The space economy is about much more than rockets and satellites. It encompasses infrastructure, autonomy, and entirely new models for building and defending off-Earth assets. This important shift will be the central topic at the Space Stage during TechCrunch Disrupt 2025, happening from October 27 to 29 at San Francisco’s Moscone West.

If you are ready to explore how next-generation technology meets the cosmos, you should secure your ticket soon. Significant savings of up to $668 end on September 26 at 11:59 PM Pacific Time.

A key session is titled “Inside the Next Era of Space Tech.” This forward-looking panel features Even Rogers, the co-founder and CEO of True Anomaly, and Max Haot, a serial entrepreneur and the CEO of Vast. They will explore what is changing and what is needed to unlock a more sustainable and scalable space economy.

Even Rogers brings deep national security and defense experience from his time as an Air Force officer and space systems strategist. His background includes serving as a DARPA Service Chiefs Fellow and contributing to the foundational doctrine of the US Space Force. He now focuses on deploying cutting-edge technologies to protect orbital assets.

Max Haot represents the commercial side of the industry. As a multi-exit founder with experience in aerospace, livestreaming, and connected devices, he brings a strong business perspective. He previously led Launcher to its acquisition by Vast, which is focused on building artificial gravity space stations.

The future of space is not theoretical. It is operational. This session will examine the strategies and technologies fueling the next wave of growth, from new government-commercial partnerships to venture-backed orbital platforms. It is a candid conversation for anyone interested in the intersection of space, innovation, and private enterprise. More space tech leaders will be announced for this panel discussion.
