5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. MT
University of Colorado Law School

The Space Tech Startup Variety Show brings the cutting edge of the aerospace industry to Silicon Flatirons, bridging the gap between out-of-this-world innovation and the legal and entrepreneurial frameworks that make it possible.

Our first Entrepreneurship Initiative event of 2026 is completely student-led, inspired by Colorado Law’s Space Law Society. It features a curated cohort of early-stage startups—ranging from satellite propulsion developers to lunar logistics providers—each presenting their vision for the future of the space economy.

Focused on the intersection of technical feasibility and market viability, the event serves as a launchpad for the next generation of Colorado’s space entrepreneurs to refine their value propositions before an audience of industry leaders. In particular, the evening offers a rare look at the regulatory and intellectual property hurdles inherent in deep-tech ventures.

The intimate and accessible Startup Variety Show approach creates a unique networking ecosystem, providing the audience with a firsthand view of the innovative edge, funding support, and legal apparatus required to turn an interesting idea into seed capital and scalability that can grow beyond Earth’s atmosphere.
