There is so much more to space than just rocket science.
So said Deborah Lygonis, CEO Friendbase AB and Investor Relations, Innovatum, at a national hybrid lunch meeting titled ”The Future of the Space Industry”, which was jointly organised by ESA BIC and Women In Space Sweden (WISS) on May the fourth.
She went on to explain how the space industry loosly divides into ’Upstream’ (including rockets and sattelites being launched to space) and ’Downstream” (includes both data streamed from space and tech that was originally developed for space), and talked about the huge growth in recent years in the ’Downstream’ sector and a growing need for a wide variety of compitence.
