Welcome to a special state of space episode from Celestial Citizen Podcast!

Today, we will be doing a deep dive into the current state of the market and space economy – a particularly timely conversation especially given the recent macroeconomic climate and potential slow down for the sector that has been the topic of many conversations in this community.  How concerned should we be for the future of space investing?  And since there is always a silver lining – where are the current opportunities and positive outcomes?

On today’s show we are joined by Justus Kilian.

Justus is a Partner at Space Capital, a $100M seed-stage venture firm investing in the space economy.  He serves on the Board of ClearRoad and Lunar Outpost.  Justus also leads Space Talent, the largest career platform at the intersection of space and tech.  He previously worked at Acumen, a $250M early-stage venture firm investing in emerging markets.  Prior to that, he worked at Merrill Lynch where he specialized in private market investments and managed $6B in assets.  Justus holds an MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business and is a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA).
