Securing Private Capital for My Space Business

Fri, January 30
W330A
SpaceCom | Space Congress: DISCOVER

Securing private capital for a space business requires understanding the current investment landscape and leveraging opportunities that align with the unique needs of the space sector. Venture capital, private equity, strategic partnerships, and incubators all offer paths to private funding. Companies seeking investment must make a strong case to investors on the appeal of the size of their target markets, the strength of their proprietary tech, the diversity of their customer bases, and the speed of their go-to-market plans. Investors are interested in viable business plans that demonstrate strong intellectual property, a unique edge, government partnerships, and a clear path to profitability.

This panel will offer contemporary insights into this landscape, discuss trends and challenges in the private capital markets, and answer questions about financing new and expanding businesses in the space industry. How the U.S. Space Force Commercial Space Strategy and NASA’s increasing reliance on commercial solutions are affecting private financing will also be addressed.
