We have been hearing news about the space sector for months: companies like Elon Musk’s SpaceX<\/a>, Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic<\/a> and Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin<\/a> are attracting the attention of the media and the general public.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But what is the value of this sector? Where are the business opportunities? What are the trends? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeffrey Manber<\/a>, considered one of the pioneering entrepreneurs to see economic opportunities around aerospace industry, will answer these questions. As founder and CEO of NanoRacks since 2009, Jeffrey Manber has led the growth of the first company to own and market its own hardware and software for the International Space Station<\/a> (ISS): he has overseen the deployment of more than 300 payloads on the ISS, and the deployment of 64 satellites in low Earth orbit through September 2015. On the other hand, the NanoRacks CubeSat Deployer<\/a> was the first commercial platform to deploy satellites from the ISS in 2014.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, after the acquisition of NanoRacks by Voyager Space<\/a>, he combines the highest responsibility in NanoRacks with the presidency of the International and Space Stations area of Voyager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voyager Space offers opportunities to use the International Space Station for commercial customers and for educational, institutional and industrial research<\/strong> – they have managed over 1000 missions to the International Space Station! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeffrey is also the co-founder and chairman of the board at StarLab Oasis<\/a>, a Space AgriTech company whose goal is to discover innovations that help create biomass and technologies to help the most arid regions of the world. In Abu Dhabi, they seek to create an international ecosystem that can bring together the leading astrocultural and space farming researchers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Charles Bolden<\/a>, a trustee of the Bankinter Foundation of Innovation, was the head of NASA from 2009 to 2017. Charles has been an astronaut and has commanded several missions, including the shuttle Columbia, where he was the pilot of the STS-61-C<\/a> and STS-31<\/a>missions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, questions remain about the sector's true value, business opportunities, and emerging trends. Jeffrey Manber, a pioneering entrepreneur in the aerospace industry, offers insight into these topics. As founder and CEO of NanoRacks since 2009, Manber has driven the company\u2019s development of hardware and software for the International Space Station (ISS), overseeing over 300 payload deployments and 64 satellite launches into low Earth orbit. Notably, NanoRacks introduced the first commercial CubeSat deployment platform from the ISS in 2014. Following NanoRacks\u2019 acquisition by Voyager Space, Manber now leads NanoRacks while serving as president of Voyager\u2019s International and Space Stations division, facilitating over 1,000 commercial, educational, and research missions to the ISS.\n\nAdditionally, Manber co-founded StarLab Oasis, a Space AgriTech company focused on developing innovative biomass and agricultural technologies to support arid regions, particularly through a research ecosystem in Abu Dhabi. The discussion also highlights Charles Bolden, former NASA administrator and astronaut, emphasizing the blend of commercial innovation and institutional expertise shaping the future of space exploration. This overview invites audiences to explore the evolving opportunities and advancements within the dynamic space sector.","_oaas_audio_url":"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/summary-16131-1764627573.mp3"},"categories":[],"class_list":["post-16131","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nwhat is the future of the space sector?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In our next #FutureTalks we will learn about the business potential of space sector from Jeffrey Manber and Charles Bolden.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/news\/space-sector-future\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"What is the future of the space sector?\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"In our next #FutureTalks we will learn about the business potential of the aerospace sector from Jeffrey Manber, one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the sector, and Charles Bolden, former head of NASA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/en\/news\/space-sector-future\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Fundaci\u00f3n Innovaci\u00f3n Bankinter\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FundacionBankinter\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-12-01T22:19:29+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/nasa-5e9CmF-Ge9Y-unsplash-1-scaled-e1642582176715.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1702\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1702\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:title\" content=\"What is the future of the space sector?\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:description\" content=\"In our next #FutureTalks we will learn about the business potential of the aerospace sector from Jeffrey Manber, one of the most successful entrepreneurs in the sector, and Charles Bolden, former head of NASA\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/nasa-5e9CmF-Ge9Y-unsplash-1-scaled-e1642582176715.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@FundacionBKT\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/news\\\/space-sector-future\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/news\\\/space-sector-future\\\/\",\"name\":\"what is the future of the space sector?\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/news\\\/space-sector-future\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/news\\\/space-sector-future\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/01\\\/nasa-5e9CmF-Ge9Y-unsplash-1-scaled-e1642582176715.jpg\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-03-14T07:18:03+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2025-12-01T22:19:29+00:00\",\"description\":\"In our next #FutureTalks we will learn about the business potential of space sector from Jeffrey Manber and Charles Bolden.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/news\\\/space-sector-future\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/news\\\/space-sector-future\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/en\\\/news\\\/space-sector-future\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/01\\\/nasa-5e9CmF-Ge9Y-unsplash-1-scaled-e1642582176715.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.fundacionbankinter.org\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/01\\\/nasa-5e9CmF-Ge9Y-unsplash-1-scaled-e1642582176715.jpg\",\"width\":2560,\"height\":1704,\"caption\":\"Fundaci\u00f3n Innovaci\u00f3n Bankinter -
