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.

Orbital Sidekick
Founder Dan Katz, Tushar Prabhakar
Category Space
Location San Leandro, CA
Product

Orbital Sidekick uses unique space-based hyperspectral imaging and analysis to prevent oil & gas leaks through early detection and monitoring. OSK’s analytics platform converts hyperspectral data into actionable information for optimizing safety while also achieving compliance obligations. Orbital Sidekick developed the most compact hyperspectral sensor to collect hundreds of narrow contiguous color bands from visible light through infrared, providing unique chemical fingerprints for each pixel in the data set. OSK’s high-frequency sensor system has been deployed on the ISS in partnership with the US Air Force and is performing monitoring for the energy and defense sectors.

EVA
Founder John Paul Garcia, Olivier Journet
Category Aviation
Location Brooklyn, NY
Product

EVA is developing a network of vertical docking stations that provide infrastructure where up to 24 drones can land, charge and launch to deliver goods. The stations are connected with the drones to communicate battery status, location, and coordinating autonomous landing operations. The station includes a full ground control area that provides unmanned traffic management to track and log flights following local regulations.

Crypta Labs
Founder Joe Luong
Category Enabling technologies
Location London, UK
Product

Crypta Labs has developed a suite of Quantum Random Number Generators (QRNGs) capable of solving a variety of randomness requirements including latency reduction, anti vibration, temperature fluctuation and radiation. Crypta’s latest patent can generate Quantum Enhanced RNG in excess of 1TB bps. The 1TB QRNG patent was designed to seed encryption for QKD in quantum satellite communications.
