The European Space economy: between challenges and opportunities

The space economy is expanding and becoming increasingly global. Today it represents €300 billion per year globally. And the projections indicate €1000 billion per year in the next ten years. 10% of those current 300 billion, i.e. 30 billion, are dedicated to space manufacturing: building satellites, rockets, etc.…The other 90% represents the "so-called downstream applications and services type of industries, who sell services and applications based on the data that flows from the space infrastructure". Europe became a massive player in this global context, representing one-quarter of this global economy. Consequently, how to develop a European competitive space industry capable of competing successfully worldwide on the market? The space economy is expanding and becoming increasingly global.
