Space East are pleased and excited to announce that we have appointed Victoria Christmas in the new role of Space Ecosystem Champion for the Space East region.
Funded through the UK Space Agency Ecosystem Development Programme, the role will offer clear and expert business support advice to a wide range of organisations, primarily those based within the local space cluster. This support involves guiding these organisations on the most appropriate business support programmes for their growth ambitions, as well as providing information on how to access broader funding and commercial opportunities across the UK’s Space Ecosystem.
Victoria has worked in the space industry for the last ten years unlocking funding opportunities for companies to develop new products and services. Her own bidding career spans twenty years across defence, commercial and academic sectors and she is an award-winning bid professional, a trained mentor and a STEM Ambassador with a passion for developing capability in others.
She will also be working closely with other Champions and Ambassadors across the UK Cluster Network to map opportunities and develop a consistent approach for businesses to engage providing long-term benefits for the organisations we support.
