Game changers in the space economy

type

oral

Description

This session will explore some of the major recent changes in the space economy, with a view of identifying current and potential economic and industrial impacts on the space sector’s different value chains. Issues which could be presented are inter alia: how new institutional and commercial actors are shaking the traditional space industry, which took decades to develop internationally; new economic models that are or will be revolutionising space related public procurement; recent technological breakthroughs that might impact industrial space developments or not (e.g. 3-D manufacturing). Some future-oriented papers (projection up to 15 years) could contribute facts and trends to the discussion on the future of the space economy.
