According to MarketsandMarkets™, the Generative AI Market is anticipated to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 43.4% over the course of the forecast period, reaching US$ 890.59 billion by 2032 from an estimated US$ 71.36 billion in 2025

A new report by the Computer & Communications Industry Association’s Space and Spectrum Policy Center outlines how reforms to our outdated space launch policy could propel the commercial space economy to new heights. Recent innovations in space technology have created new opportunities for commercial space activities, such as space-based data services, remote sensing, in-space manufacturing, commercial space stations, and lunar activities. While launch companies are introducing new vehicles capable of delivering larger payloads at a higher cadence, they encounter multiple challenges along the way.

The 12th edition of Novaspace’s Space Economy Report notes the global space economy is now on a significant growth trajectory, positioned to expand from $626.4 billion in 2025 to $1.01 trillion by 2034, a significant 12% CAGR. While growth continues to be supported by innovation, new business models, assertive government policies and expanding demand for satellite-enabled services, 2025 stands out as a structural inflection point, marking a transition from rapid expansion toward a more mature and structured space market.

t’s been a wild year in China’s satellite communications (satcom) market. The country has seen rapid growth in the number of comms satellites launched, a host of regulatory developments in the Direct-to-Device (D2D) and Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) space, and jockeying for position among two major Non-Geostationary Orbit (NGSO) projects. The three main themes of 2025 have been the ascendance of China SatNet, question marks surrounding SpaceSail, and Geostationary Orbit (GEO) being used for all sorts of creative things. For a whole lot more information on China’s NGSO constellations, get in touch about the China NGSO Constellations Report, published by Orbital Gateway Consulting in December 2025. 

Traditionally, the mission profile and business model for satellites was determined by the operators and customers before the manufacturing process began. This approach was successful for decades, but the transformation of the communications sector requires the satellite world to evolve as well. Going forward, the flexibility of software-defined satellites (SDS) promises to transform how satellite operators design, deploy and manage space segment.
