The space industry is rife with talk about a potential SpaceX IPO, one that could come with a staggering $1.5 trillion valuation. Such a deal could raise tens of billions of dollars for a privately held company that does not exactly appear short of capital.


Understanding what underpins that valuation and the push for more funding requires looking beyond the rockets that got SpaceX off the ground to the business now driving its growth.


Part 2 of Understanding the SpaceX-Era Economy focuses squarely on Starlink, the connectivity platform increasingly central to SpaceX's commercial, geopolitical and national security footprint.

The free report examines how Starlink has pushed satellite broadband from niche to mainstream, triggering billion-dollar responses from Amazon, China and others while forcing governments to confront growing dependence on a single commercial network.


As SpaceX moves to deliver connectivity directly to mass-market devices, the broadband battles defining the next decade are expanding far beyond traditional satellite markets.
