The Space Generation Summit is open to anyone who is young (18-35 years old) and interested in space. Places shall be competitive and individuals will be judged by the criteria outlined below.

The selection process is separated in to two levels:

The first level intends to select 100 demographically distributed delegates from the SGAC regional groups. These places shall be fully funded (see costs & funding).


The second level selects the remaining 100 delegates. This second level population is not determined by demographics - rather preference will be given to younger individuals and students who submit outstanding responses to the application form. These delegates will not be funded (see costs & funding).


All applicants will be assessed on their enthusiasm and interest in the vision and objectives of the Space Generation Advisory Council and similarly spirited projects. Previous individual achievements, excellence and relevant experience will be taken in to consideration. Strong emphasis will also be placed on the insightful and creative answers to the two essay questions, "your vision - accelerating our pace in space" and "local community involvement" - your personal commitment to acting on what you learn from the Space Generation Summit and sharing this with your local community.

The selection process aims to maintain an equal gender balance within delegates. Final selection will be made via contact of the candidate's referees.

There shall also be some 30-40 moderators selected who have had past experience with SGAC, SGF or ISU.
