The Economics of Space: A New Age in an Ancient Land
The MENA region is entering a new age in terms of the economics of space. Some of major questions addressed in this volume include:
The US-China superpower rivalry is fueling an internet space race that is altering the course of global commerce. A major technological revolution involves low earth orbit (LEO) satellites combined with AI technology. All predictions point to a world that in the next five years promises to bring highspeed internet to every square inch of the planet.
The spillover effects of the LEO satellite technologies will affect strategic industries, including semiconductors, hypersonics, quantum and supercomputing, electric vehicles, and 5G.
Will geopolitics or intra-MENA country cooperation drive this historic transformation?
What is the extent of intra-MENA investment in the region in the development of their space programs, with a particular focus on satellite technology?
What is the extent of international collaboration within MENA and with the USA, the PRC and/or the OECD in LEO technology and space exploration and development?
