Student Fellowship Program

The Space Beach Law Lab (SBLL) Fellowship is a selective career accelerator for high-caliber law students and recent graduates passionate about the regulatory frameworks shaping the space economy.

 

This is more than a volunteer role; it is a front-row seat to the industry. Fellows receive complimentary admission to the summit and curated access to speakers in exchange for supporting the event’s operations. You will facilitate VIP sessions, gain insight into conference production, and participate in exclusive "Mentor Moments" with general counsel and policy leaders.

 

Designed for students who bring professionalism, curiosity, and a service mindset, the Fellowship offers the context and connections to bridge the gap between academic theory and real-world space law.
