0%Agile Space Industries expands to Seattle area with new Bellevue office. New location strengthens Agile's engineering capabilities, industry relationships and strategic presence in a leading aerospace market. BELLEVUE, Wash., Oct. 15, 2026 - Agile Space Industries, a leading provider of in-space chemical propulsion solutions, has expanded into the Seattle metropolitan area with the opening of a new office in Bellevue, Washington. The expansion builds on Agile's continued growth, extending its engineering capabilities and strengthening its presence in one of the nation's most established aerospace and technology markets. Located at Sunset North in Bellevue, the new 5,470-square-foot office will initially accommodate 7 employees, with the capacity to grow to approximately 30 as Agile expands its regional operations. Agile Chief Technology Officer Jake Mills will be based at the Bellevue office, reinforcing the company's commitment to establishing a strong engineering and leadership presence in the region. "Seattle has a remarkable concentration of aerospace talent, innovative companies and organizations advancing the space industry," said Jake Mills, chief technology officer at Agile Space Industries. "Establishing a presence here allows us to tap into that expertise, strengthen industry relationships and build on the capabilities we're developing across Agile to support our customers and their missions." The Bellevue office will focus on engineering and program management, supporting the development and delivery of advanced propulsion systems for government and commercial space missions.

Tulsa's aerospace sector contributes over $11 billion annually to regional economy. Tulsa's aerospace sector drives significant economic activity with over $11 billion contributed annually by more than 250 companies employing nearly 43,000 people locally. Industry leaders highlight ongoing expansion into advanced technologies including unmanned aircraft systems and commercial space operations. Yesterday, 11:33 a.m. Wednesday, Oct 7 By OKC Standard Tulsa's aerospace and defense industry is playing a significant role in Oklahoma's $52.5 billion aerospace and defense economy, with more than 250 companies and nearly 43,000 employees contributing over $11 billion each year to the Tulsa region, according to data released on Oct. 7 by the Oklahoma Department of Aerospace and Aeronautics. The statewide aerospace and defense industry supports more than 250,000 jobs and generates $52.5 billion in annual economic activity. Senator John Haste, vice chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, said Tulsa's established aerospace industry provides a foundation for expanding into areas such as space and advanced technology. "I've seen firsthand the impact that strategic investment in aerospace infrastructure can have on Oklahoma's economy," Haste said. "Tulsa already has the workforce, companies and infrastructure needed to compete in this industry. What we're seeing now is an opportunity to build on that foundation and expand into space, advanced aviation and other emerging technologies." Former NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine, now CEO of Quantum Space, said Tulsa has an opportunity to become an important center for commercial space operations. Bridenstine announced earlier this year that Quantum Space is building a platform designed for a range of space operations from national security missions to commercial markets for on-orbit services. "Quantum Space is building satellites to meet the needs of the Space Force's Theory of Competitive Endurance. Sustained maneuver for Dynamic Space Operations is a key enabler of those needs. The State of Oklahoma is aligning itself to support the U.S. Space Force by building test and operational infrastructure to achieve sustained maneuver," said Jim Bridenstine. "With its new and existing infrastructure, deep aerospace heritage, and skilled workforce, expanding our manufacturing to Oklahoma was an obvious choice." The region's growth also extends into unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and advanced air mobility sectors as Manna Air Delivery launched its first full-scale U.S. operation in Tulsa in July 2026; it plans to create more than 1,000 jobs locally over three years across aviation operations, manufacturing, maintenance, and customer support functions. Kian Kamas, interim managing director of Tulsa Innovation Labs, said Tulsa's recent growth reflects years of collaboration between industry stakeholders including government agencies as well as education institutions. Agile Space Industries is developing a $20 million Space Test Center near Tulsa International Airport, which will add rocket engine testing capabilities; this expansion further strengthens local infrastructure supporting both traditional aeronautics activities alongside emerging commercial space endeavors.
