mu Space plans
to launch a Space Supply Chain in Southeast Asia
mu Space, a
satellite manufacturer from Southeast Asia is looking to
create a space supply chain for its region. The
company's goal is to launch Southeast Asia into a global
competitor in the aerospace industry. mu Space believes
that by building a space supply chain, companies will
have a greater chance in utilizing technologies and
furthermore innovating them for the future.
Accessibility is
a major asset in business, and we believe that this next
step will make the final frontier more accessible to
Southeast Asian companies and communities. Additionally
this opportunity also helps create jobs for people in
the region.
A Space Supply
Chain is a network of individuals and organizations that
work together to produce and sell a product. From top to
bottom, all aspects of manufacturing and commercializing
are part of a supply chain. mu Space, a satellite
manufacturer and satellite internet service provider, is
building a space supply chain in its region in order to
better the space economy with plans announced in a press
conference earlier this year.
A Space Supply
Chain would be a significant upgrade for the Southeast
Asian region, in terms of job creation, growth of
economy and investment in higher level education. A
space supply chain will help lower the cost of
production, thus ultimately allowing organizations to
sell their products at the optimal price.
On top of that,
the supply chain will also allow Southeast Asia to
compete with European and American aerospace
manufacturers, as those regions have had supply chains
for many years and are the front-runners in this
industry. Additionally, the level of production will
improve due to involving many expert minds working
together to build a high quality product.
As mentioned
above, mu Space Corp is planning to build a Space Supply
Chain in the Southeast Asia region. The plan was
announced in a press conference which was held earlier
this year and was joined by both Airbus and GISTDA, two
household names in the aerospace industry. The press
conference demonstrated that a supply chain would help
lower the cost of sending satellites to space and
ultimately making it easier to get to space.
Mr. James
Yenbamroong, CEO & CTO of mu Space, revealed:
mu Space has achieved great success
in the development of satellites and High Power Systems.
The importance of investing in 3 areas that are
important to build networks in the space industry are
Human Capital Knowledge, Equipment & Machinery and Raw
Materials. It also requires cooperation from the
government and private sectors involved, in order to
create a sustainable network in the aerospace industry,
mu Space is committed to promoting and supporting young
Start-Up groups to gain experience and knowledge. As a
result of that, we hope to see the space industry
business steadily expand in Thailand and Southeast Asia.
A space supply
chain would therefore be advantageous to the economy of
any region as the Space Industry continues to grow
rapidly. According to economic reports on the space
industry, there are major media outlets and leading
analyst groups estimating the rise in value of the
global space industry. Reports regarding the space
economy by leading economists from the highly renowned
Morgan Stanley suggest that by 2040 the aerospace
industry will have a market value of $1-Trillion.
Especially the smallsat market where reports from
Euroconsult, a organization specializing in analyzing
the space market, reports that from 2012 to 2021, the
small satellite market was valued at $23.1 billion
,however it is expected that by 2022-2031 the total
value will reach $84 billion, or more than four times
compared to the previous decade. mu Space is therefore
looking to expand its business and while doing so
improving the space industry in its region.
