Space technology isn't just about exploring new planets; it's about enhancing our lives right here on Earth. With an expected growth rate double that of global GDP, the space sector is a game-changer for global economic growth. 🛰️ This insightful piece, authored by my colleagues Alizée Acket-Goemaere, Ryan Brukardt, Jesse Klempner, Andrew Sierra, and Brooke Stokes in collaboration with the World Economic Forum, is a must-read for those attending the Farnborough International Airshow 2024, where it will spark discussions among industry leaders. 🔗 Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eSnmepps #SpaceEconomy #FIA2024 #McKinseyAtFIA

The Economist Intelligence: EIU has just launched its inaugural whitepaper on the #SpaceEconomy. We focus on how the #UnitedStates maintains its leadership position in terms of space funding but challengers are emerging. We explore ongoing regional efforts to invest and innovate and share our insights on what that means for the potential of space trade and tourism.

According to the OECD-OCDE's last edition of “The Space Economy in Figures”, advancements in space technologies have significantly contributed to addressing global challenges, operating more efficiently and on a larger scale than ever before. As an example, in OECD countries, space-based systems already support more than half of the most critical infrastructures and services, including transportation, energy, food supply, and law enforcement. As societal challenges become more complex and pressing, concerns arise regarding the space sector's ability to meet its commitments. Key priorities include ensuring the continuity and quality of government civilian missions, promoting fair competition for new market entrants, and safeguarding the orbital environment for future generations.

Space Agenda 2025, published by The Aerospace Corporation: "Space security, development, and exploration are critical elements of national policy and strategy. Inevitably, the presidential term starting in 2025 will include the need for many high-level decisions on space-related issues. Aerospace has created a series of policy papers—Space Agenda 2025—on issues already at the forefront, or likely to emerge in the next few years." https://lnkd.in/eBc3pVSQ

The “Space 2030” Agenda | Space as a Driver of Sustainable Development. United Nations 🇺🇳 🪐 4 objectives are structured around the core of space economy, space society, space accessibility and space diplomacy: 🔸Enhance/strengthen space-derived economic benefits and the role of the space sector 🔸Harness the potential of space to solve everyday challenges and leverage space-related innovation to improve the quality of life. 🔸 Improve access to space for all and ensure that all countries can benefit socioeconomically from space science and technology applications and space-based data. 🔸 Build partnerships and strengthen international cooperation in the peaceful uses of outer space and in the global governance. #SpaceTech #SatCom #SpaceScience

"Session 6: Greening the Space Sector – Exploring technology and policy solutions" - "As the demand for space services explodes, policymakers and industry representatives face the critical challenge of reconciling this growth with the urgent need to protect our planet and the environment around us. This session will discuss the challenges ahead, and look at the different policy and technology solutions that are available to ‘green’ space activities and reduce the environmental footprint of manufacturing and launching. It will look at how advancements in areas such as resource-efficient materials, cleaner fuels, and debris mitigation strategies are being used to help solve the problems, and at how Europe can work alongside like-minded international partners to ensure the realisation of our space objectives while minimising the impact on the planet."
