Information & Organizers

The AIAA Propulsion and Energy Forum is the world’s only conference event to showcase both aeronautics and space propulsion and energy technologies in a single venue. This forum brings together the global propulsion and energy community’s diverse interests, from propellers and jets to rockets and deep space propulsion, and from terrestrial energy to aerospace power systems, to cover a broad range of technologies and applications ranging from discreet components to advanced, complex subsystems. This integration of technologies, domains, applications, and systems is a unique offering by AIAA unmatched by any competitive event.
