Apogeo Space

Apogeo Space Srl is an Italian space technology company founded in 2019 and headquartered in Brescia, Italy. The company develops picosatellite platforms in the 0.3U to 6U CubeSat form factor and offers end-to-end IoT satellite connectivity services for industries requiring global asset tracking, environmental monitoring, and sensor data collection in remote locations where terrestrial networks cannot reach.

Apogeo Space designs and manufactures its spacecraft hardware in-house, including custom Copper-Beryllium (Cu-Be) a-magnetic antenna elements, antenna deployment cages, sun sensors, and high-efficiency solar panels. The company holds patents on its Cu-Be antenna technology, which allows antennas to be rolled up during launch and autonomously deployed in orbit using the antenna's inherent elastic force — eliminating additional deployment mechanisms. A-magnetic properties reduce in-orbit magnetic disturbances that would otherwise affect attitude control.

The 1U, 3U, and 6U satellite platforms offer a scalable, flight-proven foundation for IoT, Earth observation, and communications payloads, with flexible attitude control options (passive or active ADCS), multi-protocol communication (UHF/VHF/S-band; LoRa, FSK, QPSK, MIL-STD), and up to 128 GB onboard data storage. The ultra-compact 0.3U platform targets the smallest missions requiring exceptional performance in a miniaturized form factor.

Beyond hardware, Apogeo Space provides full upstream and downstream satellite services, supports integration of customer payloads, and offers IoT connectivity as a service via its picosatellite constellation. The company serves sectors including oil & gas, agriculture, smart cities, maritime, glacier and water infrastructure monitoring, and fire prevention.
