Description

Open Cosmos, founded in 2015 by Rafael Jorda Siquier, offers cost-effective satellite platform services from launch to data collection. Based in Harwell, United Kingdom, the company provides three main service bundles: beeInnovative, beeReady, and beeOrbital. Clients can access Open Cosmos' beeApp software for real-time mission stimulation. With beeReady, users can also utilize beeKit, a small-scale satellite structure model for further testing. The most comprehensive service, beeOrbital, develops mission stimulation designs into real satellite missions launched into space. Open Cosmos has raised $7 million in funding through two rounds, with the most recent round receiving investment from Upscale. The company aims to make space accessible to anyone and has already successfully launched their first nanosatellite, qb01, in just four months. They are currently working on in-orbit demonstrations and constellation deployment for various services, including remote sensing and machine-to-machine communications. Open Cosmos also offers a range of launch services, from mission simulation to operations.
