Eyeing intensified cooperation in the commercial aerospace sector, the first Netstar Commercial Aerospace Industry Alliance was recently established in Weihai High-Tech Industrial Development Zone in Shandong province's Weihai.

Organized by the Weihai Torch Hi-Tech Science Park and the Weihai Netstar Aerospace Technology Research Institute, the founding conference of the alliance saw the adoption of a charter, the election of key leadership positions and an official unveiling ceremony.

The alliance said it aims to closely align with the demand of the commercial space industry, focusing on key sectors such as satellite manufacturing, data application, payload development, and network construction.

By fostering industry-academia collaboration, the alliance is also set to provide a platform for domestic and international aerospace enterprises to share resources and leverage complementary strengths.
