The global satellite connectivity market size was US$ 11.1 billion in 2021. The global satellite connectivity market size is estimated to reach US$ 20.9 billion by 2030, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.
Artificial or man-made satellites orbit the earth or other celestial bodies to analyze and predict the solar system and the universe. Also, satellites are used for various applications such as phone calls, television signals, positioning technology, and the military. Satellite connectivity is achieved through the transmission of radio waves from satellite capturing and processing of information from antennas and transponders installed at different locations on earth. Space organizations are rising satellite launches globally to overcome the maximum distance signal transmission barrier associated with conventional signal connectivity systems. Satellites relay digital and analog signals to transmit voice, video, and data to many locations globally.

Factors Affecting Marketing Growth

Growth in government investment in space exploration and an increase in satellite launches across the globe are expected to drive the growth of the global market.
The increase in the adoption of satellite constellations drives the growth of the global market.
Strict government regulations associated with satellite launches and high initial investment associated with satellite launch services may hinder the growth of the global market.
The increasing satellite applications, the rise in demand for satellite data, and the growing integration of AI, ML, and cloud computing in the space sector drive the growth of the global market.

Impact on COVID-19 Analysis

The COVID-19 outbreak forced governments across the globe to implement stringent lockdowns and ban the importexport of raw material items for most of 2020 & few months in 2021. This led to a sudden fall in the availability of important raw materials for manufacturing satellite connectivity components. Moreover, the nationwide lockdown forced satellite systems manufacturing facilities to partially or completely shut down their operations. Adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in delays in activities and initiatives regarding the development of advanced satellite connectivity components globally. Thus, COVID-19 had a negative impact on the growth of the global market.

Regional Analysis

Asia-Pacific has exhibited the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Due to the rising satellite applications, the increase in demand for satellite data, and the growing integration of AI, ML, and cloud computing in the space sector drive the growth of the global market in the region.
