What is Space Economy?
What SpacEconomy does?
Finland is a spacefaring nation
Since launching Finland's first satellite in 2017, the country has emerged quickly as a key player in the new-era space industry. Strong academic foundations and agile public funding spurred initial growth, followed by significant private investment.
Giving the second push
Meanwhile, the public and academic sectors struggle to scale, hindering ecision-making and support for the evolving space economy. The SpacEconomy collaboration unites universities and research institutes that propelled Finland into the space age – and now we ignite our engine again.
