EMERGING MARKET WATCH

摘要

SpaceNews this week inaugurates SN Emerging Market Watch, a digital newsletter to give readers a closer view of the fastest-growing regions in the space industry. Whether it is telecommunications or Earth observation satellites, consumer broadband or cellular backhaul, markets in Latin America, Africa, Central and East Asia are showing growth rates that would have been inconceivable only a few years ago. The trend appears strong enough to survive the inevitable economic downturns, especially since national governments are responsible for much of the initial investments. With our partner Luna, a Paris-based technical consultancy, SpaceNews is periodically assembling news items, region by region, to give readers a better sense of the developments - and opportunities - in these regions. The news items are from public and private sources and are edited by SpaceNews Paris Bureau Chief Peter B. de Selding. Our inaugural SN Emerging Market Watch looks at Asia on the eve of this year's Asia-Pacific Satellite Communications Council (ASPCC) annual meeting, scheduled for Sept. 24-26 in Hong Kong, and the 64th International Astronautical Congress (IAC), Sept. 23-27 in Beijing.
