Not considering the space market for your company is a risk.
The current space economy is expected to reach 1-3 Trillion by the year 2040, according to The Space Report, and is expected to top $639 billion by 2026. By not considering a space strategy, you could be missing out on the boom . How can your technology or idea ur apply to the space ecosystem?

Surprising fact - your technology may already be primed to become a space company.
The space economy is fueled by thousands of businesses large and small worldwide, and many of these companies are not space-specific. Instead, they are "space adjacent," which means their products and services have applications in the space industry, as well as in other sectors.

If your company is related to high-precision manufacturing, data science, artificial intelligence, life sciences, biology, industrial construction, raw materials sourcing, supply chain optimization, agriculture, or cyber security…. then you may be ready to pivot into the opportunities of the space ecosystem.

This program not only covers the business basics but does so with the space market lens.Facilitated by Space Commerce Institute, our experts and industry mentors help each company identify their insertion point into the global space supply chain and create a roadmap for scalability.
