Recommendation 1
1
Provide substantial government support to Scotland's space sector, capitalising on global launch opportunities.
Recommendation
The global shortage of launch capacity combined with Scotland’s rapid sectoral growth and increasing international interest presents a time- sensitive opportunity that must not be missed. The Government must realise the massive potential for Scotland’s burgeoning space sector to contribute to the UK’s economic growth and must provide a level of support commensurate with this potential. (Conclusion, Paragraph 36)
