Space Economy, Innovation and Sustainability

Abstract

Space Economy (SE) is increasingly becoming relevant for business and management with impacts on many industrial segments (i.e. agriculture, transport, assurance and the environment) but also on sustainable practices (i.e. Agenda 2030). Despite the importance of SE for new business models and value creation processes in the ecosystem, theoretical approaches for the downstream space economy implementation are still quite limited in literature. Accordingly, this paper reports the results of an in-depth analysis of the main factors (i.e. Open innovation drivers and Digital Platform business model) that affect effective implementation of space value chain models

“…TThe space economy is also having an impact on several industrial sectors, sustainable practices, and business and management (Yang, Lei.,Yue, Guo., Xiaotong, Li., Zhe, Jing.. 2022). Finding profitable market niches is essential in the Russian space market, where the commercialization of space operations is a prominent trend that is observed worldwide (Daniele et al, 2022). The space sector as well as larger society stand to gain from the space economy's ability to generate employment, economic growth, and multiplier effects (Irina et al, 2022).…”

Trends in LPWAN Technologies for LEO Satellite Constellations in the NewSpace Context

“…This concept diverges from traditional governmentled space programs, emphasizing the role of private companies, like SpaceX and Rocket Lab, in satellite manufacturing and launching. The adaptation and screening of Commercial of The Shelf (COTS) components boosted the miniaturization of satellites, including cube, micro-, and nanosatellites, enabling deployment in a single launcher and facilitating more accessible access to low Earth orbits (LEOs) [2].…”
