Takashi Space was launched in March 2005 as an international venture dedicated to planning projects supporting the future of space access. With offices in Seattle, Washington US and Amsterdam NL, Takashi Space seeks to assist companies, governments and the research community in defining strategies for lower-cost space access which may not have been considered previously. Takashi Space focuses on a number of new, innovative technologies for alternate and/or lower-cost access to space, as well as envisioning new forms and locations for launch facilities that better suit current companies, governments and universities, as well as the challenges of space access in the 21st century. We believe that these three elements are key to successful space access in the future. With the impending commercialisation of many areas of space systems technology and transportation comes the requirement to take a new look at space business, costs and benefits to communities that wish to explore new ventures. Successful projects in the 21st century will require new thinking and new business models. A few projects have included: Mentorship / project review in African space feasibility for the International Space University SSP13 Space Studies Program in Strasbourg FR. Focus on Cameroon, DRC, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, and Uganda. (2013) Feasibility study for a rocket launch facility and regional African space agency cooperation model for the Cameroonian Ministry of Higher Education. (2005-2006)
