Taiwan’s space talent program invites Kevin O'Connell to discuss global commercial space trends.
INSIDE reports that the global space economy is accelerating, with low-Earth orbit satellites, orbital data centers, and commercial supply chains becoming key areas of competition. Taiwan already has a position in the space supply chain, but still needs talent in policy, diplomacy, and business strategy. The Taiwan space affairs youth talent program will host Kevin M. O'Connell, former U.S. space commerce official, with applications open until June 5, 2026.
This INSIDE report focuses on Taiwan's cultivation of space talent and global commercial space trends. The article notes that the global space economy is in a phase of rapid expansion, and commercial space is no longer just about rocket launches or satellite manufacturing, but encompasses a broader industrial landscape including the low-Earth-orbit satellite race, orbital data centers, space data applications, and transnational supply chain positioning. The report uses SpaceX's IPO valuation surpassing 2 trillion US dollars and the white-hot competition in low-Earth-orbit satellites as backdrop, highlighting that the space industry has become a field of shared concern for international technology, capital, and geopolitics.
