    Space/Aerospace/Drone

    Introduction

    The aerospace, aviation, and drone industries differ from traditional transportation modes such as vehicles and ships in that they utilize three-dimensional space for transportation. Therefore, they require different forms of regulation, or regulations that may need to be developed. These industries are based on cutting-edge technology (deep tech) and often require significant capital investment, necessitating financial support from the government through national research projects. Additionally, they involve mergers and acquisitions between technology companies and the stable attraction of significant capital through private financing, venture capital, or public funding. Furthermore, active participation in various insurance policies is required to mitigate risks that may arise during business operations, with the drone sector specifically requiring the development of new types of insurance products.
