Space technologies are playing a pivotal role in the transition towards digital and green economies. ​At industry level, the space sector is providing tremendous opportunities to drive innovation and create new market opportunities. Satellite signals and data are increasingly accessed and used across a wide range of industry sectors, from energy to health, food and tourism. ​The growth of the global space industry sector is expected to have a spillover effect into other areas, creating jobs, driving innovation and revitalising the post-COVID economy. This will inevitably translate into new skills and capabilities for the future workforce.
