The new UK Space Agency was launched by Lord Mandelson, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation & Skills and Science, and Lord Drayson, on Tuesday 23 March 2010.

The corporate identity for the agency was created by Folio.

Folio won this exciting commission against stiff competition from many other high profile design businesses.

The space and satellite industry is one of the UK’s unsung success stories, which supports 68,000 jobs in the UK directly and indirectly and contributes £6.5bn to the economy. The new logo will play a key part in focusing attention on this high-tech, high-skilled sector which is underpinned by a leading edge scientific, technical and engineering capability in both industry and academia.
