Space is entering a new commercial era, rapidly transforming how we communicate, navigate, observe, and secure our planet

What’s needed to unlock the next wave of space-driven capabilities for our planet?

Space systems need new design paradigms for cost-effective, scalable architectures

Conventional space infrastructure is too expensive, rigid, and integration-heavy.

Future missions require agile, modular, software‑driven architectures that scale, not “one-off” systems.

Climate, resilience, and security challenges require real-time planetary insight

Organisations need continuous, trustworthy awareness of our planet to respond to climate risk, protect critical infrastructure, and maintain national resilience.

However, today’s systems are slow, fragmented, and reactive.

Organisations need defensible IP and competitive moats to survive a market driven by scale

Without defensible IP and unique capabilities, organisations risk being squeezed out by scale-driven competitors.

We help space innovators create defensible IP that provides a lasting competitive edge

Organisations typically partner with us when the stakes are high, and the path is not clear

Typical objectives

1

Develop a differentiated offering that requires breakthrough innovation (beyond sustaining innovation)

2

Achieve, accomplish, or avoid something that is easy to state but hard to achieve

3

Enhance and accelerate innovation by complementing in-house capabilities with hard to acquire Deep Tech capabilities

Put simply, we strive in ambiguous, high-stakes innovation environments. It’s what we do.

Unlike other R&D outsourcing organisations, product companies or research firms:

We operate where it is not possible to follow a specification. Instead, we rely on the ability to figure out the path to achieve an objective: quickly, reliably, economically

We deploy agile, mission-driven, multi-disciplinary teams combining Deep Tech skillsets and technologies

We conceive and develop original products and services that re-define markets and stand out from the competition

We support critical business decisions by carrying out tailored strategic research underpinned by a combination of technology and market understanding

When missions demand novel architectures, new system designs, or pushing the limits of physics, organisations partner with us to conceive and turn bold concepts into working solutions

How It Works: The Capabilities We Bring

1

We design agile, modular, software-driven space architectures that scale – not one-off missions

2

We rapidly explore the technical frontier – from physics constraints to new system concepts – to validate what’s possible before others can

3

We help organisations create unique algorithms, payload concepts, sensing methods, and architectures that competitors can’t easily replicate

Public client stories

We are helping Iridium Communications Inc. create their Iridium NTN Direct™ service, which aims to bring the advantage of a global non-terrestrial network to Narrowband-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) users around the world. Built on a network that’s already global, no new constellation required.

Built on a network that’s already global, no new constellation required.

We have engineered a range of high-performance, ultra‑lightweight, low‑power and modular stratospheric payloads designed to operate reliably in near‑space conditions.

These showcase our ability to engineer compact, high‑performance systems for platforms where every performance per gram and watt matters.

These showcase our ability to engineer compact, high‑performance systems for platforms where every performance per gram and watt matters.

We developed a novel multi-frame, super-resolution technique to extract high-fidelity detail from low‑quality or resource‑constrained imagery, demonstrating our ability to deliver advanced on‑device intelligence for missions where data, power, and compute are severely constrained.

We pioneered the first single‑chip Bluetooth radio (now part of Qualcomm Inc.) demonstrating our ability to deliver ultra‑low‑power systems essential for next‑generation space sensors and distributed in‑orbit architectures.
