The North America small satellite market is expected to grow from US$ 1,325.42 million in 2022 to US$ 4,976.36 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 24.7% from 2022 to 2028.
Growing Support for Development of Small Satellite
Various government authorities and companies across the North America have invested in the small satellite market owing to the increasing need for small satellites for various applications such as earth observation, communication and navigation, and scientific research. In November 2021, Fleet Space Technologies raised US$ 26 million in funds to expand the nanosatellite IoT connectivity fleet. Such investments from governments drive the growth of the small satellite market. The use of small satellites helps government authorities maintain national security, capture data regarding areas damaged by earthquakes or floods, monitor suspicious ships, and serve other purposes such as communication & navigation, earth observation, and scientific research operations. The governments of various countries are supporting the development of small satellites for earth observation. Under the project, the government announced that they would support the companies for quick construction and domestic production of a small satellite. Thus, the increasing initiatives for the development of small satellites fuel the growth of the small satellite market.
Market Overview
The North America small satellite market based on country, is segmented into the US, Canada, and Mexico. The demand for small satellites is increasing across North America owing to its rise in applications such as earth and space observation; IoT and communications; asset tracking; science and environment; and security, defense, and national space programs. Also, fleet management companies across North America are increasingly utilizing small satellites for real-time tracking of their huge commercial fleet, thereby reducing the risk of theft and downtime of vehicle by offering quick responses to vehicle failures. Such factors are catalyzing the demand for new small satellites across the space satellite sector. The small satellites are being launched for applications such as communication and isle tracking across the US. Such factors are driving the growth of the North America small satellite market.
