What will it take for Europe to lead the global ISAM revolution?In this special live episode of In-Orbit, host Dallas Campbell takes us inside the ISAM Conference in Belfast for a wide-ranging panel discussion on Europe's ambitions and progress in in-orbit servicing, assembly, and manufacturing (ISAM).Featuring representatives from the European Space Agency (ESA), UK Space Agency (UKSA), Italian Space Agency (ASI), OHB, and GMV, the panel explores strategic priorities, mission developments, commercial opportunities, and regulatory challenges.From pioneering demo missions and robotic assembly to tackling debris and building a circular economy in space, this episode highlights how Europe is taking bold steps in space sustainability. Discover how ESA is leading by example, what barriers industry still faces, and why collaboration, innovation, and risk-taking will be key to staying ahead in the growing global ISAM market.<ul><li>(00:00) - Introduction to In-Orbit Podcast</li>
