Abstract
The small satellite industry has grown at a significant rate over the past decade as it has spread across the world. The most dynamic part of this international growth has been those who design and build cube sat and even smaller-sized satellites. The creation of PocketQube and thin satellite standards for spacecraft even smaller than cube satellites has contributed to this rapid global expansion. The following listing of a number of small satellite companies seeks to provide a representative listing of the companies around the world that have sought a place in the small satellite industry. Inclusion of particular companies in this listing should not be considered an endorsement of individual companies or their particular products or services.
An sincere effort has been undertaken to include as many small satellite componies and component suppliers as possible, but because of the large number of new companies in this field this has proven quite difficult. Any omissions are unintentional. An effort has been made to be as comprehensive as possible, but the large number of companies involved in building small satellites or satellite components is very large and growing daily. Any omission is unintentional.
