Recommendation 17

17

Space sector prioritisation requires long-term strategic investment aligned with national strategies

Recommendation
The sector’s prioritisation within the Industrial Strategy, must be underpinned by a long-term and strategic approach to investment in the sector, which is also aligned with the objectives of the National Space Strategy and Defence Space Strategy. Such an approach would provide stakeholders with greater confidence, stability with existing policies and a clearer roadmap for long-term growth. (Recommendation, Paragraph 83)
