Building on Existing Infrastructure

Individuals looking to establish a space business are encouraged to leverage existing technologies and capabilities rather than reinventing the wheel. By building on pre-existing solutions, such as the internet’s infrastructure, entrepreneurs can focus on scaling their operations more rapidly. For instance, there's no need to develop an entire payment system when established options are available to support business transactions. This approach not only reduces costs but also enhances accessibility in a competitive space industry.
