Omnes Capital invests in EnduroSat's $205M round to scale next-generation space fleets. For immediate release - September 16, 2026 Round co-led by Riot Ventures and Atreides Management funds a new high-volume manufacturing facility in the United States and the EU's largest space and defense hub, on the way to space data at roughly $1 per gigabyte. EnduroSat, a space company building standardized, software-flexible satellites and a streamlined constellations-as-a-service model, has raised $205 million in a round co-led by Riot Ventures and Atreides Management, with backing from the European Innovation Council, Google Ventures, Founders Fund, House Capital, Lux Capital, Omnes Capital, Giant Ventures, Emphatic Capital & Endeavor Catalyst. Scaling serial production The capital will scale EnduroSat's satellite capabilities - moving to larger spacecraft in its ESPA-class FRAME line while pushing serial standardization further, producing satellites with the repeatability and volume of drones rather than one-off bespoke builds. Central to the raise: opening a new high-volume manufacturing facility in the United States and building the EU's largest space and defense hub. Re-industrialization of the EU and US has been at the core of EnduroSat's efforts. Driving the cost of space data to $1 per gigabyte The round is anchored by the company's ambition - driving the cost of space data down to roughly $1 per gigabyte, from hundreds of dollars per GB today. At that price, entirely new markets open up: small and medium enterprises can afford to build space data into their products and operations, turning space from an exclusive, capital-intensive domain into a profitable layer for virtually any business. Building on extensive flight heritage Already on track to become one of the largest satellite manufacturers in the world, EnduroSat has launched 103 satellites to orbit and delivered more than 200 for missions across the globe. The company is betting that standardization and radically cheaper space data will define the next era of the space economy. "The vision remains untouched: democratize access to space data. Our job is to empower the innovators at the final frontier - eliminating complexity and tedious supply chains, and making their services profitable from the get-go. Now it's time to scale things up a notch. I'd like to thank Riot, Atreides and all our investors for the vote of confidence as we keep building dramatically larger-scale space infrastructure." * Raycho Raychev, Founder & CEO, EnduroSat "Every large technology market of the last 50 years was driven by a cost curve. Space data still costs hundreds of dollars per gigabyte, and that price is the barrier to new applications and new markets. EnduroSat is attacking that number at the manufacturing layer, and at $1 per gigabyte the addressable market stops being the space industry and becomes every industry." * Gavin Baker, Founder, Managing Partner & CIO, Atreides Management "We back founders with a real technical advantage and the operational leadership to turn that advantage into manufacturing at scale. EnduroSat has already launched 103 satellites and delivered more than 200, and they're just getting started. With the EU's largest space and defense hub underway and a new manufacturing base being built in the United States, they're building the industrial capacity to meet the speed and scale this market now demands." - Stephen Marcus, Co-founder and Managing General Partner, Riot Ventures About EnduroSat EnduroSat is a space infrastructure builder that engineers, manufactures, and operates high-performance satellites, making space universally accessible for commercial and institutional customers across the globe.

TrustPoint CEO previews independent PNT satellite constellation with EnduroSat deal. Thursday, September 10th, 2026 TrustPoint is moving forward to build out its GPS-independent PNT constellation plans, tapping EnduroSat US to build 40 satellites in a deal announced Thursday. These 40 satellites will take the company's constellation to 47 satellites, including three previously launched spacecraft and four spacecraft in development as part of a SpaceWERX Tactical Funding Increase (TACFI) awarded earlier this year. "It's a signal that we're transitioning out of the R&D demo and pilot timeframe into the operational, production timeframe. That's the transition Trust Point will...
