The space sector is undergoing a major transformation, driven by the rise of New Space, growing strategic sovereignty issues, and the expansion of civil, institutional and defence applications. Players must meet rising demand for space capabilities (telecommunications, observation, navigation, science) while managing significant cost, schedule and reliability constraints. This context is accompanied by intensifying international competition, the rapid evolution of system architectures (reusable launchers, constellations, minisatellites) and increased requirements in terms of sustainability and space environment management. Faced with these issues, the space sector must address major technical and industrial challenges linked to system complexity, extreme operational environments and very high reliability requirements. Development cycles must be shortened while maintaining a high level of qualification and safety.
Ametra supports institutional and industrial space stakeholders on launcher, satellite and ground-segment programmes, from early phases through industrialisation and operations.
