China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT), headquartered in Beijing, has been the leading launch vehicle manufacture in China since its establishment in 1957. CALT is also one of the major launch service providers in the world. The Long March launch vehicles, designed and manufactured by CALT, can send various payloads to Low Earth Orbit (LEO), Sun-synchronous Orbit (SSO) and Geo-synchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO) with low cost and high reliability.

Under the direct administration of the State Council,China-Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation is one of the biggest enterprises solely owned by the state.Within CASIC,four divisions have been established,including six large-scale academies,over 180 enterprises and institutions with nearly 100.000 employees in total,among which 40 percent are technicians and engineers of different specialties.
Taking missile weapon system as its foundation,CASIC also lays great emphasis on the development of information technology for military and civil purposes,satellite exploration and application,energy,environmental protection and equipment complex,etc

The China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) evolved from the former China Aerospace Corporation encompassing some of its organizations. With the approval of the State Council, on 01 July 1999, in an effort to become more competitive the Chinese government reformed the top ten Defense and Technology Corporations. These corporations, including the former China Aerospace Corporation, are all large State Owned Enterprises(SOE's) under direct supervision of the State Council.
The former China Aerospace Corporation, with some 270,000 employees, was divided into the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) and the China Aerospace Machinery and Electronics Corporation (CAMEC), presumably with about 150,000 employees.
The S&T Corporation has adopted CALT, the Fourth Academy, CAST, 062 Base, and 067 Base.
The Electro-mechanical Corporation has integrated the Second and Third Academies and the remaining bases.

–China Great Wall Industry Corp. has been acting as the ties and bridges between the Chinese and global space community. For nearly 20 years, China Great Wall has been endeavoring to contribute to the peaceful utilization of space technology, and has especially played an important role in the development of satellite communication in the Asian-Pacific region.
