Documented cause
SpacePE2 built satellite data products for Peru with full knowledge of CONIDA's regulatory gap. Raised $2.5M. CONIDA's commercial framework arrived 6 months after the runway expired.
Lesson
“Peruvian space ventures must raise 36+ months of runway to survive CONIDA's commercial authorization timeline — 24 months is not enough even when the problem is known.”
