ReOrbit builds software-defined satellites in LEO and GEO: intelligent, connected platforms where networking and flexibility are designed in from the start, not bolted on. Our customers are nations and operators who want full ownership and control of their space infrastructure.

We have two product lines. Silta is our small GEO communications satellite for operators who want geostationary capability and sovereign control without committing to a multi-tonne, 15-year satellite. OrbitCloud® is a regional LEO constellation that delivers private 5G connectivity and in-orbit AI processing for defence.

We raised a €45 million Series A in 2025\. In March 2026 we signed a €150 million contract with SLI, Libra Group’s aerospace arm, for two small GEO satellites. Business Finland is backing our OrbitCloud R&D programme with €4.6 million. We’re 150+ people across hubs in Helsinki and Bengaluru, and our first launch is planned for 2027.
