| Description: | Space accelerators are an integral and growing part of the space startup and innovation landscape. By promoting the growth of space accelerators, countries can build their space economies and spur innovation in domestic and regional space ventures. Accelerators support startups through education, mentorship, and sometimes financing. Space accelerators are defined in this paper as an accelerator that mentions space in either its primary or secondary focuses. Startups will enter the accelerators for a fixed amount of time as a cohort in an intense learning period. Accelerators can be incredibly beneficial for domestic and regional space ventures. Space-focused accelerators are essential to growing a healthy, robust, and well-connected space sector in all space nations. This paper looks at the significant global space accelerators and the qualities that made them successful. This paper also maps the space accelerator landscape. With this analysis, recommendations are proposed based on the data gathered. Thus, providing data to evaluate and adapt what has worked elsewhere for all space nations. One of the key findings of this research is that space accelerators that work with mature space industry partners deliver better results. This evaluation will assist emerging, and mature space nations grow their space economy for success. |
