A satellite bus refers to standardized, modular framework or platform that provides essential support systems for the operation of a satellite. It serves as the foundation for a satellite's subsystems, including power, propulsion, thermal control, communication, and attitude control, allowing the payload such as scientific instruments, cameras, or communication transponders to function effectively. The demand for satellite bus is growing due to companies such as SpaceX (Starlink), OneWeb, and Amazon (Project Kuiper) are deploying large constellations of small satellites for global broadband coverage and for the development of internet services, these constellations rely on standardized satellite buses. Standardized satellite buses reduce development time and development costs compared to custom-built satellites, additionally governments around the world, including the U.S., China, India, and other European countries, are investing heavily in space programs further driving the market growth. Additionally, there is growing demand for satellite buses from variety of industries such as telecommunications, Earth observation, navigation, and scientific research.

There is growth in satellite launches in recent years due to rise in technological advancements, rise in demand for connectivity, and emergence of private aerospace and defence companies. Furthermore, rise of smaller, cost-effective satellites such as CubeSats has made it easier for startups, universities, and emerging countries to join space exploration projects, which is further driving the market for satellite bus. In addition, rise of mega-constellations projects, such as SpaceX's Starlink, Amazon's Project Kuiper, and OneWeb, aims to provide high-speed internet access globally. These projects require frequent launch of thousands of satellites, further driving the demand for satellite launches. In addition, governments globally are deploying more satellites for defence and surveillance operations.
