The Ministry of Investment of Saudi, the Saudi Space Agency, and more than 50 KSA and Middle Eastern media, including Saudi Press Agency, Al Riyadh, Saudi News, Witnaat, Aawsat News, and Al Arabia, have reported on ASPACE.
The Saudi Press Agency reported that Dr. Mohammed bin Saud Al-Tamimi, the CEO of the Saudi Space Agency, expressed his view that ASPACE's investment in the Kingdom is a significant milestone for the company, and that he anticipates positive impact in the space industry within the Kingdom and the enhancing of the overall satellite manufacturing base in the region. He also highlighted the company's commitment to advancing space technology not only within GCC countries but also to the global.
The Ministry of Investment of Saudi stated that “the Saudi Vision2030, set forth ambitious targets for the space sector, backed by the Saudi Space Agency, has proven the sky is not the limit, and invites the private sector to work with the Kingdom on making its ambitions a reality.”
