Specifically, it discusses the reason for the increased interest in lunar commerce, which lunar markets will be part of the initiative and how much of it will be commercial or dependent on government funding. It provides an easy introduction to the content of the Lunar Commerce Portfolio, which was recently issued, under the author's leadership, by the Working Group on Lunar Commerce and Economics of the Moon Village Association, which has Observer Status at the United Nations in Vienna. Written in an easily accessible style, this book is good for anyone who is interested in space policy and futures, Lunar businesses, national space planning, and international space regulations. . 606 $aNew business enterprises 606 $aVenture capital 606 $aOuter space$xExploration 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aStrategic planning 606 $aLeadership 606 $aStart-Ups and Venture Capital 606 $aSpace Exploration and Astronautics 606 $aBusiness Strategy and Leadership 615 0$aNew business enterprises. 615 0$aVenture capital. 615 0$aOuter space$xExploration. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aStrategic planning. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 14$aStart-Ups and Venture Capital. 615 24$aSpace Exploration and Astronautics. 615 24$aBusiness Strategy and Leadership. 676 $a658.11 676 $a658.15224 700 $aWebber$b Derek$01738917 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910857790503321 996 $aLunar Commerce$94161917 997 $aUNINA
