How space companies are funded

The #1 question I'm asked by space startups is how to obtain funding. Investors and funding rounds, government grants, going public, even mergers and acquisitions - there are many ways space companies are funded. It may surprise you how much money comes from governments and which US government entities have funding for space. If your company is seeking funding for your space business, I go into all of the opportunities.

A very informative video, Laura. 👍🏽 Perhaps in the future you can do a video(s) on SBIR's, SpaceWERX, and the Space Development Agency (SDA).

Thanks! And yes, I can do that.

2:30. For those wondering how much that is, SpaceX is worth more than twice all the other space companies combined.
SpaceX is nearing the size to that of NASA.
