22–23 Mar
2024 summit dates

Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia

The International Space Balloon Summit in Mongolia brought government, universities, and space researchers together around a public launch and a scientific program. The event took place under presidential patronage with ministry and university partners.

The original 2024 program names MARSA as general organizer and Wakayama University among the co-organizers. Kagawa College’s annual report documents a summit presentation at the Mongolian University of Science and Technology. The program schedules a March 22 launch and March 23 symposium; the supplied archive originally listed March 21–22.

National Park launch and scientific conference

The first day centered on a public balloon launch at National Park in Ulaanbaatar; the next day brought participants into a scientific conference. Coordination linked the participants and program across those two settings.

The work was organizational: align institutions, support a public-facing event, and give researchers and students a reason to meet around the same project.
