2. Today’s Space Economy
Most diverse and dynamic economy on the planet
Touches every continent, community and citizen
Daily life relies on space technology
Every businesses is a space business given reliance
on space technology
Global space economy is expected to grow from
$414B today to $1-3T by 2040
Opportunities for ALL

3. Global Growth & Good Governance
Global commercial space
commerce represents
nearly 80% of global space
activity.
Largest subset of products
and services is positioning,
navigation and timing,
which earned $98.67 billion
in revenue in 2018 —a
20.5% jump from 2017.
Technology created for
space exploration is
commercialized for virtually
every industry.
Space economy is
expanding and diversifying
through private enterprises
and collaborations.
The right legislation enables the right workforce to grow the space
economy for lift-off. (e.g. NDEA Act of 1958; 2004 actions, etc.)
You can’t develop technology or be innovative without skilled talent.
The same goes for policy making.

4. Technology Transfer & Insertion
Tech Transfer & Insertion are the ROI of every space program; Whatever
is developed for space benefits life on Earth.
Every industry and infrastructure has been transformed by space.
Opportunity: NASA alone has hundreds of technology
patents waiting for commercialization.
Challenge: Aging population and not enough skilled
entrepreneurs to develop space technology innovations
for life on Earth.
Solution: aggressive technology transfer and insertion
program; UAE Space Investment Plan; UAE National
Space Strategy 2030
Space Foundation initiatives feature hands-on STEM
training, business development workshops, and our
annual Space Symposium that connects over 15,000
space professionals annually.

5. Innovation & Space Policy
• Legislation, regulation and rule making must encourage and fund
education, recruitment, and training for space technology innovation.
• These actions create and expand economic opportunity
• (e.g., In 2004, legislative mandates and private enterprise in the US launched a new
era of space technology innovation. These changes, along with the first suborbital
flights of SpaceShipOne, triggered a 13-year growth period resulting in a 162%
increase in commercial space revenue from 2005 to 2018.)
• Global policy opportunities: managing/removing space debris; exploration;
Earth observation; orbital access, etc.
You can’t develop technology or be innovative without skilled talent.
The same goes for policy making.

6. Developing Standards to Increase Transparency
Standards are necessary to ensure quality, performance, compatibility, interoperability, trust and reliability.
Our Shared Foundation
• 20+ years of the ISS operations and continual human presence in Earth orbit
• 60+ years of operating telecommunications satellites
• 80+ years of rocket launches
• 100 years of radio and radar transmissions
Collaboration on international standards allows:
• Mobile phones use when we travel overseas
• Supply chain systems working seamlessly when goods cross oceans
• Internet to connect citizens across continents
• GPS to work around the globe.
Collaboration must continue if space is to become the true global frontier of opportunity.

7. Space Foundation
• Join Us! We are looking for partners, collaborators, and sponsors of
like minded organizations that want to make an impact on the future
workforce and for the space economy.
• As a 501(c)(3) global leader in space advocacy for 37 years, Space
Foundation is in the unique position to unite the entire spectrum of
stakeholders across the space technology ecosystem to cultivate
lifelong learners, innovators and valued contributors to the space
economy.
