Space infrastructure news and deals tracker 1Q 2025
"Space infrastructure activities (including satellite orders, launch contracts, funding and acquisitions) accounted for more than USD5.4 billion in 1Q 2025."
1Q 2025 was a strong quarter for the space infrastructure market. Geopolitical tensions led governments worldwide to invest more in space-based defence applications. The commercial market capitalised on this opportunity and adapted its products to serve government and military organisations at the national level. However, uncertainties with government-led programmes, as well as unclear long-term strategies, have created confusion among commercial players.
Analysys Mason's Space infrastructure news and deals tracker highlights the news and deals that are relevant to players in the satellite manufacturing and launch market, including details of satellite orders and launches, industry players' moves and programme decisions. Each deal is categorised by region, organisation, satellite application, date and source. This tracker is updated quarterly.
