'Blue Origin Eyes International Expansion' - Tech Crunch
Portfolio Pulse from Happy Mohamed
Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos' space company, is planning to expand into international markets and is considering a launch site outside the US. The company is also seeking partnerships and acquisitions in Europe and beyond to grow its launch and space services businesses. Europe's imminent retirement of the Ariane 5 rocket and the implosion of Virgin Orbit could provide opportunities for Blue Origin. The company is also considering opportunities in the Middle East. Blue Origin has struggled to compete with Rocket Lab and SpaceX, but is developing a fully reusable heavy-lift orbital rocket called New Glenn.
