At the same time, we will play a key role in developing a robust Earth observation ecosystem within Saudi Arabia for the benefit of the Government, Agriculture, Energy, Travel, and Tourism sectors".

NSG was launched in May 2024 , when Public Investment Fund (PIF) announced the establishment of NSG with the mission to become a global leader in the satellite and space sector. By fostering national expertise and enhancing Saudi Arabia's position in the global space economy, NSG aims to unlock the potential of emerging industries, diversify the Saudi economy, and support the realization of Vision 2030.
