Thank you to everyone who celebrated Gaisler’s first 25 Years in Space!

CELEBRATION,
GALA DINNER & CONFERENCE

FORUM

In addition to celebrating Gaisler’s 25th anniversary, the Conference will focus on mission computing, supported by Sweden, Europe, and Frontgrade Technologies, exploring the latest advancements and innovations in this rapidly growing field of technology.

Gaisler, a proud spin-off from Chalmers University of Technology and the European Space Agency, is strongly supported by the Swedish National Space Agency as we advance processor development using cutting-edge ultra-deep submicron technologies.

Representatives from these key organizations, alongside experts from space companies and academia, will share their insights.

We invite representatives and leaders from other space agencies, institutions, academia, and the space industry. This will be an excellent opportunity to network and gain deeper insights into our role in advancing space exploration.

GALA DINNER

Following the full day at the Conference, we invite all our esteemed guests and valued employees to a grand Gala Dinner at the Imagine dining room on the 29th floor overlooking Gothenburg. As always, we aim to be a grade above.

You will have ample time to network and visit our historical and new products exhibit during the mingle before the three-course dinner.

Learn more about how Frontgrade Technologies is becoming a multi-domain aerospace & defense products company. Why not take the opportunity to talk to our brilliant engineers – it’s all about the people.

In accordance with traditions, you will be entertained by a live act performing familiar pop music – another great Swedish innovation.

Since we are celebrating, let’s see where the evening takes us. Prepare for surprises and help us make this a memorable evening!
