Held the first Space Transformation (SX) Promotion Seminar! ～Social Transformation Pioneered by Satellites
2025.07.02
Today, society is beginning to change from space. Space is no longer a dream or a hope, but a real business arena. In particular, the use of satellites has the potential to revolutionize many industries on the ground, including communications, disaster prevention, finance, and infrastructure. Space Transformation (SX) is a challenge to fundamentally transform the economic and social infrastructure by harnessing the power of such space. The XG Mobile Promotion Forum (XGMF) has launched the "Space x Ground Use Case Study Project" with the aim of co-creating new value and use cases and SX through dialogue between satellite operators and ground industry users. This seminar is an important first step to kick off the process.

〇Project Introduction: Space x Ground Use Case Study Project This project is a forum for satellite operators and the ground industry to engage in dialogue and co-create the social infrastructure of the future. The themes to be discussed include the following
New Digital Infrastructure Using Satellite Constellations (e.g., communication infrastructure that does not stop even in the event of a disaster, mission-critical communications, etc.)
Specific case studies of solving problems on the ground in space (financial infrastructure, elimination of communication area vacancies, disaster risk reduction, replacement of existing communication, etc.)
Even if you are not familiar with space...you are welcome to join us! Space technology is involved in various areas such as communications, infrastructure, disaster prevention, finance, and agriculture. Your point of view may provide a hint for future use cases. Why don't you start with a dialogue with us? Several more seminars will be held in the future.
