In this episode of The Techne Connect, Jeremy Fix, Chief Engineer at ispace-U.S., shares his journey through three decades in the space industry and how innovation is accelerating faster than ever before.

He explains how iSpace is redefining lunar exploration through its ambitious Moon Valley 2040 vision, combining global collaboration and cutting-edge technology to make commercial missions to the Moon a reality. Jeremy discusses the engineering challenges of building fully autonomous lunar landers, the growing importance of cybersecurity in space systems, and how open-source platforms and AI are transforming satellite development.

He also reflects on his career lessons—from working across major aerospace programmes to leading agile teams that deliver missions in record time—and offers advice for engineers entering the sector. Jeremy highlights why culture, mentorship, and integrity matter as much as technical excellence, and why space today is more accessible than ever for those ready to innovate, collaborate, and explore beyond Earth.
