"The government’s contentious decision to invest in OneWeb, the bankrupt satellite operator, has received a significant boost, with Eutelsat, the French space group, joining it as a shareholder and at a higher price.
Eutelsat is injecting $550 million into OneWeb in return for a 24 per cent stake. Last year ministers raised eyebrows in some quarters when they paid $500 million in return for a similar- sized holding."
Hang on.
The French buying into OneWeb?
They don't have any faith in the EU's Gallileo?
"Kwasi Kwarteng, the business secretary, seized on the Eutelsat move as a vote of confidence in the project: “Today’s investment is another giant leap forward for OneWeb in realising their ambition to provide global broadband connectivity around the globe,” he said."

Yes it's reported in The Times which, being a reputable source, is subscription-only.
If you can't read it because of that and you won't use the free strial subscription you're going to have to find less-reputable sources for this news yourself or rely upon the excerpts I have posted.
If it’s not elusive then why haven’t you provided a link to the EY report you cited instead trying to avoid the question by posting various other stories. L
So? How about that link?

UK, more specific dom cummings, bought into oneweb with the intention to develop a UK version of galileo. There was a snag, alas. Wrong satelites (too low an orbit). Look the debacle up if you like.

You're welcome.
The link you now provide is published on april 12, and has no barometer or reference to one. In short, what you now deliver is not what was asked for.
So, do it again!

You just didn't like the source.
That doesn't mean I didn't provide the evidence.
And now that I've done what you couldn't be bothered to do you're still quibbling!
You're just upset that you cannot dispute the figures.
From the original link:
"Celebrating the UK success, Generation Frexit leader Charles-Henri Gallois tweeted: "The UK remains the epicentre of investment in start-ups.
"They doubled.
"One in three European investments goes to the UK.
"The start-up nation is outside the EU."

However, when one tries to find the repirt on the public sites of EY, it isn't there. Still not reflecting on EY, but it means your linked article, and in extenso your claim, is unsubstatiated, and to be ignored.

That's the EU way .
That's what led to Brexit.
That is also what will lead to further disagreement withing the EU.
Like you, the EU doesn't listen to warnings.
