Hello all. Welcome to the NewSpace Business Group!

Mission
To show the practical possibilities of Outer Space to the larger business community through the MBA students, business school alumni, and local community outreach.

Vision
We believe that management schools are in a unique position to foster the NewSpace industry because of their position as the leaders and creators of new ideas and new institutions. The NewSpace Business Group wants to bring that special group front-and-center in the future of humanity's progress into space.

What is NewSpace?
A restructuring of business related to aerospace from the public sponsored ventures to private-motivated businesses.

Our Current Objectives
To be an organization that provides a location for NewSpace companies to recruit business and management expertise, and for management students to connect to companies serious about exploring new ideas in space.

Field Projects

We are planning to offer the benefit of our services as business consultants to a small business in the NewSpace community for a reasonable price. We take on small market research projects, business strategy, and other problems.

We're excited about this opportunity to not only help businessmen in this exciting new industry, but also to bring potential employers to the University of Arizona.

The fees that we collect from these projects will be used to send our members to conferences in the area, such as the International Symposium of Personal and Commercial Space Flight (ISPCS) in Las Cruces, NM, and the Space Access Society's annual conference in Phoenix, AZ.

To apply, write jcard@email.arizona.edu.
