Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) and national entrepreneurs must create business solutions in the space market based on the exploration of Angosat-2, according to the National Space Program Management Office (GGPEN).
For the head of the Department of Space Education of the GGPEN, Gilberto Gomes, the global space sector offers countless business opportunities, with a safe return, as long as solutions are developed based on satellite images and artificial intelligence algorithms.
According to him, this market is emerging and accessible to all entrepreneurs who have the opportunity to invest in technological applications for management, mines, ecology, land exploration and maritime and river surveillance, thus benefiting widely from Angosat-2.
It was also revealed that to help realize the business of national entrepreneurs, GGPEN has satellite images and a telecommunications satellite mechanism, the so-called “Kit Conect Angola”, where national entrepreneurs can learn about and develop business, the from Angosat-2.
To this end, explains the space specialist, those interested in joining the business to the spatial dimension need to master information and communication technologies, as, for example, a student, with just a computer and Internet, in a period of two years, can develop the its first space application and commercialize it.
In this regard, the person responsible reiterated that State bodies are already exploring Angosat-2, as is the case with Endiama, in the field of mining, management applications for the Lobito Corridor, State Asset Management, the National Petroleum Agency, Gas and Biofuels (ANPG) and monitoring the Angolan coast.
