This partnership has since flourished, leading to a series of high-level meetings and MoUs spanning multiple sectors, such as Science & Technology, Defense, Aerospace, Telecommunications, Information Technology, and Digitalization, complementing their joint efforts in space and geospatial industriesgeospatial industries. These sectors include Science & Technology, Defense, Aerospace, Telecommunications, Information Technology, and Digitalization.

TRADE MISSION
