The Global Space Economy, Space Vacations and the Final Investment Frontier

Raphael Roettgen, Managing Partner, E2MC Ventures

Raphael Roettgen
In the Constellations Podcast, we’ll discuss the global space economy and how it is affecting investments in the space industry. Access to space is starting to move beyond traditional use cases, such as satellite television, Internet, and communication to remote locations. Right now, innovative companies and organizations are developing technology and methods for in-space experimentation and manufacturing as well as space stations for commercial use and space planes to deliver customers there, and more. With the expansion of use cases comes growth in investment opportunities and space venture capitalists are looking for the new market segment with the highest possibility of return. During this episode, Raphael Roettgen, professional space investor and founder of E2MC, will explore the potential in these emerging space market segments including the one he refers to as “the kitchen sink.” Listen as he shares his experience in diversification, how proposals he’s receiving are different now than in the past, and how he weighs the risk and reward of potential investment opportunities.
