About Lusospace

Lusospace was founded in 2002 in Portugal as the first space startup in the country. The company has grown by 20% on average since its inception and has expanded its capabilities, including acquiring testing equipment and establishing two clean rooms. It has created two spin-offs: LusoVU, focused on Augmented Reality, and LusoMusic, focused on music education technology. Lusospace also invested in TurfLynx, a company that developed an autonomous mower for golf courses.
