Geospatial understanding in an uncertain world
In an era of growing geopolitical instability, both the foundations of national sovereignty – security, stability, and prosperity – and the operating environment for commercial entities are under unprecedented pressure. Nations and businesses alike face multidimensional threats that span land, sea, and air and now increasingly, space.
Security of water, food, and energy is no longer solely a development concern but a matter of resilience and continuity. Economic security, internal cohesion, and border control are becoming strategic priorities for states, just as supply chain integrity, market access, and regulatory risk are becoming existential issues for industries.
The global democratisation of space presents both opportunity and exposure, introducing new vulnerabilities for governments and enterprises. Both now require unrestricted, resilient access to Earth Observation (EO) data and independent, timely analysis to navigate evolving threats and shifting dynamics.
Space is emerging as the critical enabler: with access and reach, space can provide a strong deterrent to adversaries and a visible assurance to stakeholders. Yet without control over export regulations, or the capability to develop national expertise, many actors, both state and commercial, remain dependent on external providers, weakening their strategic autonomy at a time when sovereignty, insight, and independence matter most.
