Probably one of the best books on Metaverse that I have come across in recent months. This is all hypothetical and far off but while everyone is enamored with #generativeai someone will be pitching to their own company to have a stake in the final frontier of business.Ĭan you afford not to be a space company? It speaks volumes that the majority of UK Space Agency funding these days is towards supporting the satellite industry for which as a small space nation there are around 150+ companies in this sector - and that's a huge risk long term if it doesn't support others with the same focus. I would rather see this happen than billboards on the moon! ![]() It also means growing the space sector from across different industries, allowing for the cross-skilling of workers who could take up roles in satellite data analysis, mission control, space logistics, and more. Why would you pay someone else for the data you don't own when you could launch a ride-share satellite into orbit and own the data itself directly? And that could mean a competitive edge in your own industry if you have access to the right type of data under your own direction and analytical capabilities rather than someone else's. But frankly, time is running out - with the cost of launches dropping like a dud rocket and #CubeSats costing next to nothing the plethora of satellite companies will one day face competition from the very customers they sell to. Providing satellite data and accompanying analytics have pretty much become the lowest common denominator when it comes to the space sector, it's the lowest-hanging fruit a startup can attack if they can secure customers willing to pay for the data. Sea traffic: iceberg monitoring, oil spills detection, coastal traffic monitoringĭisaster response: fast response to natural catastrophes Land use: infrastructure planning and monitoring of building activity Insurance: infrastructure integrity monitoring ![]() Aside from satellite imagery, the data itself streaming back to Earth has a variety of use cases including -įorestry: forestry planning and prevention of illegal loggingĮnergy: pipeline and right-of-way monitoring, new deposits More and more companies are making use of satellite data provided through third parties. OMEGA SA can claim to be the first luxury brand in space, Since then lots of brands like Pepsi, Coca-Cola, John Smith’s, KitKat, Specsavers, Robinson Squash, and Suntory have all launched products into space for whatever PR reasons known to the cosmos.īut brands aside, the easiest way to become part of the future of space is through #satellites. ![]() It's not as daft as it sounds, some companies have a foothold in space already without realising it whilst others, like luxury brands have already been to space. Sounds stupid at the moment but we've already claimed that they'll be a Cloud/ Mobile/ AI/ Metaverse/Big Data* company so why not space? At some point, every company will become a #space company.
