Prime Lightworks
Founder Kyle Flanagan
Category Propellant-less electric propulsion for satellites
Location Culver City, CA
Product

Prime Lightworks is developing a RF resonant cavity thruster for satellite propulsion that could replace satellite propellant mass and conventional satellite propulsion systems. Prime Lightworks fully electric propulsion systems would increase satellite payload mass and orbital velocities, while lowering fuel emissions and launch costs to orbit. Satellites’ lifetime would be increased by making it only limited by their components failure, and not anymore by propellant capacity.

Momentus
Founder Mikhail Kokorich
Category Space
Location Santa Clara, CA
Product

Momentus provides in-space transportation services to help spacecraft reach their final destination, allowing customers that launch from the ISS or LEO to reach higher orbits or more effective inclinations. Their propulsion system is based on a proprietary water plasma technology. It features higher thrust and higher specific impulse than comparable chemical propulsion systems (3x less propellant is needed to deliver payloads to their target orbits).

SyncFab
Founder Jeremy Goodwin
Category Enabling technologies
Location San Leandro, CA
Product

SyncFab has developed a subscription-based blockchain procurement platform that connects OEM Part Buyers with Distributed Parts Manufacturers to securely share part information and avoid recalls by identifying defects in the supply chain, as well as improve inventory management. SyncFab uses ERC721 tokenization to securely store part manufacturing details on the blockchain and record every transaction across a supply chain in a single, shared audit trail for traceability, as well as QMS, ISO, AS9100, ITAR and DFARS compliance.

Launcher
Founder Max Haot
Category Space
Location Brooklyn, NY
Product

Launcher is developing a high-performance small satellite launcher with a metal 3D printed engine. Due to Launcher’s additive manufacturing methods, the engine has the largest thrust and lowest cost per pound of thrust in the small satellite launcher class, giving customers the flexibility to dictate scheduling and orbit at a low cost.
