Interesting. Do you have any links about that? I would really like to know if cartels are really investing in space technology, and what companies in particular. Or did you mean that the money made on war on drugs is put to that use?

Sorry to disappoint you but I am just making wild guesses. You don't need to be an expert in technology to invest in technology companies. After all those "unicorns" earning tons of money for their early investors, I don't think a cartel would be any less intrigued than ordinary rich people.
