Summary
The Nano and Microsatellite market report
constitutes of revenues from hardware, software
and services required for the development and
launch of such satellites. Overall market size is
found by adding up the market size for two
segments of satellites namely 1kg to 10kgs (Nano
satellites) and 11kgs to 100kgs
(Microsatellites). Though above two markets can
exist independently, but the playing fields are
the same. For example, there are applications in
communication, earth observation, remote sensing,
biological experiments, scientific research,
academic training, space science and intelligence
among various others. Among all applications of
Nano and microsatellites, earth observations and
remote sensing is expected to account for highest
market share by 2019.

1. Software and data processing Software
packages as well as data processing suites that
are required for accepting and extracting
actionable information from the raw satellite
data at the ground station2. Nano satellites
Satellites in the range of 1kg to 10kgs 3. Earth
observation and remote sensing Disaster
monitoring application such as cyclones, storms,
floods, fires, volcanic activities, earthquakes,
landslides, oil slicks, environmental pollution,
industrial and/or power plant disaster among
various others 4. Commercial Nano and
Microsatellites built and used for commercial
purposes One challenge that may hamper the
expected double digit growth of this market is
raising capital by startups and small sized
companies as every machine, every orbiting
device, cost thousands of dollars

every major technology investment has been a
bet-the-company adventure. Thus finding the right
area along with economically feasible and
profitable area holds the key to success in this
field. Inability to obtain financing could
possibly delay or cancel satellite programs.
According to survey reports about 60 percent of
U.S. commercial satellites have been financed by
U.S. based Ex-Im Bank and are planning to enhance
its support for U.S. industry in anticipation of
its aggressive competition, in funds provided for
satellite exports worldwide, from its European
counterpart, Coface. However, uncertainty in
global financial markets creates mixed results
for funding in satellite services sector
business. Debt markets are still strong while
traditional investors remain risk averse in
perspective to markets for satellite financing.

There are various assumptions also that have been
taken into consideration for market sizing and
forecasting exercise. A few of the global
assumptions include political, economic, social,
technological and economic factors. For instance,
exchange rates, one of the economic factors, are
expected to have moderate rating of impact on
this market. Therefore, dollar fluctuations are
expected to not seriously affect the forecasts in
the emerging APAC regions.
