Singapore's Space Agency — OSTIn
Singapore's national space office is the Office for Space Technology and Industry (OSTIn), established under the Economic Development Board. OSTIn coordinates national space policy, runs the Space Technology Development Programme (STDP), supports Singapore-based space startups, and engages internationally on Singapore's behalf in space matters.
Our team advises clients on OSTIn-aligned project structuring, STDP grant participation, and the regulatory pathways that link OSTIn, IMDA (for spectrum), and EDB (for industry development) when launching or operating satellites with a Singapore nexus.
