Title

The space economy: what are the socio-economic impacts?

Description

The 'space economy' covers the value-chain of the space sector (from launchers to satellites and space services) and its various downstream applications. This session will focus on actual illustrations (with figures), where the returns of investing in space systems and/or its downstream uses are discussed, either at country, regional or even corporate levels (e.g. job creation due to a space activity, direct and indirect value-added derived from applications, cost-savings, productivity gains). Papers should also present the underlying methodologies used to get to the results.
