  4. Economic Impact of Aerospace in Florida • Total # Aerospace-Related Companies*11,638 • Total # of Aerospace Industry Employees*132,140 • Total Aerospace Industries Sales/Revenues* $17,722,439,967 • * From: 2013 Economic Impact of Aerospace in Florida by FSU Center for Economic Forecasting and Analysis

  5. Space / Aerospace Industry Trends • Strategic Assets Depleted ... 20 Years of War. • Decade Forecast of Stressed Federal Budgets • Continued Industry Consolidations • Continued Aging of the workforce • International Technology Leveling

  6. The Space Industry is Transitioning! … … … Private Sector Role Increasing! • Global Space Industry Revenues from Commercial Sources, far exceed Government! • Even without Sequestration, Federal Budgets for Space will be severely constrained. • The Long-Standing Policy of Commercial Reliance in Government … … will Increase!

  7. What Does Commercial Industry Mean? • Private Sector at Risk, with Investment and a Management Team / Plan to reach Market! • Will Include both NewSpace and OldSpace Companies … … many New Entrants. • Government … Increasingly a Secondary Market • Commercial & Flexible Contracting Structures • CPFF  Fixed Pricing/Fixed Schedule • More Commercial Off-the-Shelf
