Tom Cooke

Tom Cooke is the co-founder and CEO of Spacely,  a digital marketplace connecting independent workers to the aerospace industry.  Tom is a U.S. Air Force Academy graduate and spent 16 of his 24 years of service in space systems development and operations.  After retiring from the Air Force in 2017 he began researching open talent marketplace utilization across industries and potential applications for the aerospace industry. This led to the formation of Spacely in January 2020.  In June 2020 Spacely was selected to be part of a 5-year contract effort to bring forward aerospace specific expertise to support NASA’s Open Innovation efforts through an open talent marketplace model. Spacely’s goals are to be a trusted network partner in providing access to talent for the aerospace industry and to bring forward opportunities to those who want to contribute and take part in the growing space economy.
