The New Space industry, characterized by the emergence of private companies and start-ups developing innovative space technologies and services, is rapidly transforming the global space landscape. Sweden, with its strong technological capabilities and entrepreneurial spirit, is well-positioned to play a leading role in this new era of space exploration.However, the New Space industry is also highly competitive, and Swedish companies need to be able to innovate quickly and efficiently to succeed. Innovation ecosystems, which are networks of interconnected actors that collaborate to develop and commercialize new technologies, can play a vital role in supporting Swedish New Space companies.This chapter examines the importance of innovation ecosystems in the New Space industry from a Swedish perspective. It begins by providing an overview of the New Space industry and its key trends. It then discusses the role of innovation ecosystems in supporting innovation and growth in the New Space industry. Finally, it examines the Swedish space innovation ecosystem and identifies specific opportunities and challenges for Swedish New Space companies.The Importance of Innovation Ecosystems in the New Space IndustryInnovation ecosystems are important for the New Space industry for a number of reasons. First, they provide access to a wide range of resources, including capital, expertise, and infrastructure. This is important for New Space companies, which often have limited resources of their own.Second, innovation ecosystems facilitate collaboration and knowledge sharing. This is essential for the development of new technologies, which often require expertise from multiple disciplines.Third, innovation ecosystems can help to reduce the risk associated with innovation. This is important for New Space companies, which are operating in a rapidly changing and competitive environment.The Swedish Space Innovation EcosystemThe Swedish space innovation ecosystem is relatively strong, with a number of well-established companies and research institutions. However, there are also some challenges that need to be addressed to support the growth of Swedish New Space companies.One challenge is that the Swedish space innovation ecosystem is fragmented. There are a number of different actors involved in the space industry, but they are not always well-connected. This can make it difficult for New Space companies to access the resources and support they need.Another challenge is that the Swedish space innovation ecosystem is relatively small. This limits the pool of potential collaborators and investors
