Space
The space economy is growing exponentially and is expected to reach $1800 billion by 2035, according to the World Economic Forum and McKinsey & Company. Growth is driven not only by advanced technology, but also by the integral role of space in our daily lives, from weather reports to smartphone conversations. Satellites and space technology have become the backbone of global supply chains and transport systems. Have you considered what life would be like without these technologies?
