Edison issues report on the small satellite market: A New Paradigm for Space

Small is beautiful, especially when it comes to fulfilling the needs of consumers and Big Tech companies the world over.

With half of the world still without access to the internet, the likes of Amazon, Facebook and Google cannot monetise them. So small satellites are being launched to rapidly fill this chasm.

In their new report Edison analysts Anne Margaret Crow and Andy Chambers survey the corporate launch landscape from Elon Musk's Space X and Jeff Bezos's Amazon to lesser-known - but still pivotal players - including AAC Clyde Space and Mynaric.

"Mega-constellations of smallsats are emerging." says Anne Margaret. "Frost & Sullivan predicts nearly 10,000 will be launched in the next 10 years - 90% of them by entities that have already started launching them. Our analysis helps investors see which companies are well placed to benefit.

"We have no doubt the trends in the industry are set to continue. During the coronavirus pandemic broadband connectivity has become a lifeline for many. Video-conferencing is up 350%, Netflix streaming by 38%. With half the world still not being able to access these services, the smallsat sector is set to be a dynamic business of increasing importance for years to come."
