E-Space

E-Space operates a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite platform designed to enable internet of Things (IoT) connectivity and services globally. The company's technology comprises a mesh network of secure multi-application satellites that connect billions of small, easy-to-install devices deployed anywhere on Earth. The E-Space platform features a point-to-point space network with a zero-trust topology, making it suitable for transmitting critical data. The system incorporates edge AI optimization capabilities to deliver actionable insights and automation beyond traditional IoT sensing and tracking. The company's satellites are specifically designed to minimize space debris through features such as high-drag configuration for quick deorbiting, complete satellite demise upon atmospheric re-entry, and small cross-sections to reduce collision vulnerability. In May 2022, E-Space launched its first three demonstration satellites from New Zealand via Rocket Lab launch vehicles.

Key customers and partnerships

E-Space has established a relationship with the US Department of Defense, completing a contract that involved demonstrating its space system capabilities. The company also worked with the French Space Agency (CNES) for a feasibility study to assess its system's capabilities.
