C'est un nouvel espace économique, et il est nommé New Space.Un terme qui symbolise une nouvelle révolution de l'industrie spatiale.La toute récente levée de fonds record de la start-up franco-américaine Loft Orbital, qui s'élève à 170 millions d'euros, en est la preuve la plus éclatante.Le New Space, qu'est ce que c'est ?Le New Space, c'est l'ère de la privatisation et de la démocratisation de l'espace. Contrairement à l'époque où seules les agences spatiales nationales dominaient le secteur, aujourd'hui, des entreprises privées comme SpaceX, OneWeb, ou Loft Orbital innovent pour rendre l'accès à l'espace plus rapide et moins coûteux.Avec des solutions comme les constellations de satellites ou des mini-lanceurs, le New Space répond à des cas d'usage concrets, comme la météo, l'agriculture, la surveillance environnementale, et même la défense.Et l'entreprise Loft Orbital permet de mieux comprendre ce véritable phénomène.Louer l'utilisation de satellites partagés entre plusieurs clientsCréée en 2017 par des Français et un Américain, cette start-up propose une idée originale. Il s'agit de louer l'utilisation de satellites partagés entre plusieurs clients. En clair, les clients – comme la NASA ou Microsoft – n'ont plus à construire leurs propres satellites pour en utiliser.Ils peuvent installer leurs capteurs ou leurs logiciels sur des satellites standardisés de Loft Orbital, qui se charge ensuite du lancement et de l'exploitation. De quoi bénéficier d'un gain de temps considérable. Loft Orbital assure que la mise en exploitation d'un projet passe ainsi de plusieurs années à quelques mois seulement.À ce jour, Loft Orbital a déjà mis en orbite cinq satellites. Avec cette levée de fonds, l'entreprise prévoit de développer deux nouvelles constellations de dix satellites chacune et d'implanter des infrastructures au Moyen-Orient.Pourquoi est-ce que le développement du New Space est si important ?Le modèle de Loft Orbital reflète un tournant stratégique. En intégrant des technologies comme l'intelligence artificielle embarquée, ses satellites peuvent traiter les données directement en orbite et envoyer des alertes en temps réel.Par exemple, cela permet de détecter un feu de forêt avant qu'il ne devienne incontrôlable. Et c'est cette approche qui change la donne pour des secteurs comme la gestion des crises climatiques ou la défense.De plus, le New Space favorise l'investissement en Europe. Des start-ups françaises comme Latitude ou Unseenlabs montrent que le potentiel est énorme. Et ce même dans un marché dominé par des géants américainsLe ZD Tech est sur toutes les plateformes de podcast ! Abonnez-vous !Hébergé par Ausha.

How do you get Blackrock to lead your $140M funding round? You'll have to listen to Loft Orbital's CEO and cofounder, Pierre-Damien Vaujour, to find out.The SF-based company provides a turnkey solution for launching, deploying, and operating small satellites, giving more players access to space. Loft's business model could be most simplified as a fulfillment model for the space industry. The company buys satellite buses in bulk and integrates customer payloads via their universal hub interface. The company's proprietary satellite management software simplifies the notoriously complex task of spacecraft operations. The key value prop? Help customers get to space in months, not years.Mo and Pierre-Damien have a wide-ranging conversation, including highlights such as:Loft's business model vs. competitors Space-as-a-service to space-infrastructure-as-a-serviceFuture innovations in the satellite industryToulouse, and why it's the aerospace capital of EuropeAnd much more… This episode is brought to you by Epsilon3, software for complex engineering, testing, and operational procedures.

C'est la tête dans les étoiles mais le corps en Californie que Pierre-Damien Vaujour s'épanche au micro de 40 Nuances de Next sur l'aventure de Loft Orbital qu'il a co-fondée en 2017. Un pied à Toulouse, l'autre à San Francisco, la jeune entreprise opère des satellites afin de rendre l'espace plus accessible aux entreprises. Concrètement, les clients de Loft Orbital utilisent ses satellites pour y développer des applications comme le suivi de bateaux ou l'évolution d'une parcelle agricole touchée par le feu, etc. A l'image de ce que fait sur terre AWS ou Google Cloud.La startup a levé 156 millions de dollars depuis ses débuts. Elle compte désormais 100 personnes et revendique 300 millions de dollars de contrats signés. Loft Orbital est lancé dans une course à l'armement, celle d'augmenter le nombre des satellites qu'elle met en orbite à 500 km au-dessus de nos têtes, un peu plus loin que la station spatiale internationale, là où l'air n'existe plus.Vous découvrirez dans cet épisode un homme intarissable sur l'espace, passé par l'agence spatiale européenne, la NASA ou une startup américaine de la SpaceTech. Un terrain d'expression idéal qui a permis à ce passionné d'espace de rencontrer Elon Musk. Rien que ça.Côté “Sista”, Pierre-Damien Vaujour a choisi Mathilde Colin, fondatrice de Front, entrepreneure française vivant à San Francisco, “qui est une source d'inspiration”.À vos écouteurs
In this webcast, NASA Deputy Associate Administrator for Business Operations Casey Swails is joined by speakers from Voyager Space, Spaceflight, Loft Orbital, and BCG for a discussion about how private businesses, industries, civil space agencies, government organizations, and commercial space companies form strategic partnerships and collaborate with each other to accomplish a mission. Host Jeffrey Hill kicks off the discussion by asking how existing commercial space industry business models work. For example: How do customers engage with launch services? How are satellites procured? How can an organization access space without having to build their own satellite or buy their own rocket? The group also takes a look at the International Space Station (ISS) as an example of a space-based economic hub involving a variety of business models and partnerships. Please note: There are minor audio issues throughout the podcast related to speaker microphones captured during the livestream.

Today I am speaking with Alex Greenberg, Co-founder & COO of Loft Orbital. Loft is actually one of my favourite companies in the space industry. I will let you listen to Alex explaining about what they do, but what got me interested in Loft is - they are actually trying to solve something that I have been asking myself over the last couple of years, which is whether we can "outsource space" especially the part of building, launching and operating satellites. In this episode, Alex and I discussion that question, talk about Loft's journey, how they manage to become a household name both in the US and in France, their go-to-market strategy and more.
