Space Hub Connect: From Earth to Orbit | The Multi-Market cut through of Deep Tech

Four deep tech founders share how they're selling the same breakthrough technology across wildly different markets, from space to healthcare to robotics.

Four founders walk you through how they're selling one core technology across completely different markets, each with its own sales cycle, customer type, and regulatory landscape. Heba Khamis (tactile sensors for robotics), Clyde Webster (autonomous assistants for high-risk work), and MJ Akter will discuss the practical tension between perfecting a breakthrough and getting early revenue, plus how they've structured go-to-market strategies that work across space, defence, healthcare, and manufacturing. You'll hear real lessons on finding your market wedge, navigating fractured customer segments, and the frameworks they use to keep long-term R&D on track while selling today. This is useful if you're deep in deep tech development and wondering how to validate across multiple industries without diluting your focus, or if you're curious how Australian founders tackle the commercialisation problem that kills most hard-tech ventures. Expect candid conversation and a good chance to connect with the local aerospace and advanced manufacturing community.
