The UK has set an ambitious vision to grow its space sector to £40bn by 2030, supporting 100,000 jobs.
The sector is already on course to hit this target, growing in 2017 to £14.8Bn, with 41,900 employees and
at the end of 2018 was made up of 948 organisations.

The start of this year has seen the extraordinary impacts of the COVID-19 crisis. At the moment we need to
focus on working together to deal with the health crisis at hand. However, both now, and when the priority
becomes an economic one, space is a key part of the solution.

The two universal trends that are driving the new digital space economy are the opportunity for satellite
applications are Geospatial Intelligence and Ubiquitous Connectivity.

Our 2018-2023 company strategy sets out our 5 year approach to growing the UK space sector.
