USPACE Technology Group Limited and the Egyptian Space Agency (EgSA) have signed a strategic partnership agreement to establish a joint venture in Cairo, Egypt.

This will be one of the first commercialised aerospace companies in Egypt, expanding Uspace’s business presence in the rapidly growing African space market.

The collaboration will include the establishment of centres for satellite manufacturing, payload design and manufacturing, and component and precision manufacturing, as well as an integrated satellite constellation for remote sensing and communication across the African continent.
