Alén Space shares insights on the evolution of New Space in Satsearch’s podcast

July 23, 2025

The podcast ‘The Space Industry‘ from Satsearch has once again featured Alén Space in its latest episode. This time, Isolina Pérez, Commercial Director, shared her perspective on the role of small satellite manufacturers in an increasingly demanding and competitive landscape.

Titled ‘Evolving New Space market trends from a nanosatellite manufacturer’s perspective,’ episode 78 of the podcast explores how the space sector is evolving and dives into several key topics:

  • The transformation of the New Space sector over the past decade
  • The industry’s shift from technology demonstration missions (IOD) to real services that bring tangible impact to life on Earth
  • The profile of today’s customers and their growing requirements in terms of power, precision, and reliability
  • The need to adapt satellite platforms to a market demanding greater scalability and efficiency

During the conversation, Isolina Pérez highlighted some of Alén Space’s most relevant projects and emphasized how the company’s growth has always been driven by real missions. That experience helped build a strong technological foundation in end-to-end missions, communication payloads, software-defined radios (SDRs), on-board computers (OBCs), TTC solutions, ground stations, and software development.

Looking to the future, Alén Space’s Commercial Director shared her views on some of the trends already shaping the industry, including a growing number of public initiatives and new business opportunities linked to defense, sustainability, traffic management, and space debris mitigation: “We’re going to see a trend of companies moving beyond low Earth orbit (LEO) and exploring new business models. Agility is essential, but always combined with resilience and long-term objectives.”

Alén Space remains focused on delivering solutions tailored to each client’s needs. “We always keep an eye on the market. We’ll grow and adapt our platforms to offer added value, not change just for the sake of changing,” remarked Isolina Pérez.
