AdAstra With brings the insights of top NewSpace and Clean Tech industry leaders and game changers to the masses with authentic conversation and discussions on hot industry topics! Our hosts Seyka and Brian Mejeur, the founders of AdAstra Talent Advisors, sit down with Janeya Griffin, Founder and CEO of Equity Space Alliance

Janeya is a STEM graduate from an HBCU who contracted with NASA for 8.5 years, specializing in Technology Transfer. Today, she is an active leader at four different organizations all focused on bridging gaps between society and excluded communities. One such organization is the Equity Space Alliance (ESA) where she is the Founder, Chair, and CEO. 

ESA's mission is to advocate, educate, and facilitate equitable ownership within the space industry. They are not solely working to diversify the space industry workforce; but, are working to position and prepare the next generation of space entrepreneurs, researchers, and businesses from underserved communities. 

During this episode Seyka, Brian and Janeya discuss:

  • Bringing awareness to increasing equity (not just diversity) in the NewSpace economy
  • What the term “equity” mean and why it matters for NewSpace
  • What specific actions can be done to make an impact
