Abstract
Emerging space economies have different rates of involvement and contribution to the space sector, however, despite different objectives and challenges, investing in the space economy contributes to the socio-economic development and growth of these countries.
The main objective of this research is to investigate space in emerging economies. More specifically, through literature reviews, subject matter expert interviews, and data analytics, we investigate both the benefits of space technology and applications to socio-economic development and space industry development and support. In our research, investigating the industry, politics, and law is critical to understanding the future opportunities for space in emerging economies. Our main focus of research will be pertaining to nations in Latin America, specifically Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico, as compared to focusing on the whole global scale.
