Dr Sharon Lemac-Vincere, Lancaster University, talks to Alan Cross, North West Space Cluster Development Manager.

At the core of this podcast is a man who followed his passion for space to become a key voice in the North West of England’s commercial space sector. Alan Cross shares how self-doubt almost deprived him of the opportunity to be at the forefront of growing the North West space cluster. And how he moved from Shakespearean actor and big bang singer, to supporting entrepreneurs, politicians, policy makers and academics to see the potential of space.
