Space Cafe Radio Geopolitics - Bridging the Gap: Space and Geospatial Sector Challenges with Kevin Pomfret
In this episode of Space Cafe Radio, host Torsten Kriening interviews Kevin Pomfret, partner at Williams Mullen Law Firm and founder of the Center for Spatial Law and Policy.
Kevin leverages his 30 years of experience in corporate and transactional law to help companies in the space and spatial sectors grow and innovate. He works with a wide range of businesses that use technologies such as small sats, cloud computing, 5G, ML/AI, 3D and UAVs to develop commercial, government and societal applications.
They discuss the critical gap between the space and geospatial sectors, particularly focusing on the practical applications and challenges in disaster response, agriculture, and other areas in the Global South. Kevin highlights the importance of legal and policy frameworks for successful integration and use of space and geospatial data. The discussion includes examples from Mexico and Chile, the role of various stakeholders, and lessons that emerging space ecosystems can learn from more established programs.
