“The point-to-point space transportation industry vertical will open up and address a  market of over $800 billion a year andover 100 million space travelers by 2040. Addressing this market safely, efficiently, and sustainably requires investments in  infrastructure and technologies that need to be funded and effected today. We are proud to join forces with F4F, as its vision, mission and success will be key to ensure the financial resources, standards, regulatory environment, and operationalframeworks are ready for this game changing opportunity. A faster connectivity across the globe using space as a transportation mode, will make the world safer, more peaceful, and wealthier. Fast point to point flight will also pave the road for multi planetary point-to-point transportation. To achieve a multi planet humanity, people need to make  the world smallerand to be able to routinely cross the world and back in one business day” Oscar S. Garcia, IFG and HSAT-FF CEO
