Safety-critical systems need extensive documentation for space applications like satellites, probes, and spacecraft. This process often exceeds the development effort itself due to constant revisions. Small and medium enterprises can’t afford dedicated documentation teams, and even large ones face high costs. Astra Labs is creating a next-generation documentation tool to automate these tasks, cutting cost and time for safety-critical space and ground systems using AI to generate review-ready, standards-compliant documents.
SmartAIs
Blind and visually impaired people face outdoor challenges like navigating around obstacles and inaccurate GPS navigation. SmartAIs provides a user-friendly app that uses smartphone cameras to detect obstacles and improve GPS navigation with visual data, offering a safer, independent solution for outdoor mobility.
Sylva
We help reduce the costs of land surveys by 50% with a simple data collection and analysis software.
Encosa Energy
encosa enables its commercial and industrial customers to save electricity costs with the help of battery storage systems and innovative software. Our solution also helps to decarbonize electricity consumption. In doing so, encosa acts as a one-stop shop, i.e. encosa takes care of the complete process from planning and installation to operation of the asset.
Lyrasense
LYRASENSE develops advanced dual-use AI agents to democratize geospatial intelligence, enabling rapid creation and deployment of actionable solutions from satellite and geospatial data, simplifying complex analyses and reducing operational barriers and costs.
Qoro Quantum
Quantum computing promises advances in simulation, optimization, and machine learning, but requires large-scale, robust systems. Modular architectures offer scalability but add networking and orchestration challenges. Qoro Quantum solves this with a network stack that automates parallelization and orchestration of quantum algorithms across networked devices, including hybrid classical-quantum systems, accelerating real-world quantum computing capabilities.
VORTEX Aerotec
VORTEX is developing Ventus, a fuel-cell-powered long-range eVTOL drone for middle mile logistics, offering 500 km range, 50 kg payload capacity, and rapid five-minute refueling. Unlike short-range battery drones or gas turbine competitors, Ventus combines low emissions, large cargo space, and compact design with GNSS-PPP precision navigation for safe BVLOS operations. Backed by IP in aerodynamics, hybrid power control, and fuel cell integration, the experienced VORTEX team is targeting a fast-growing $3B market with a scalable OEM approach.
Aves Reality
We turn satellite images into 3D digital twin worlds.
allunderground
We are allunderground, a deep-tech startup from Munich, developing cable drilling machines for underground power lines. The European electricity grid is the bottleneck in the transition to renewable energy, and we are here to change that. Our startup is a spin-off from the student initiative TUM Boring – Innovation in Tunneling, where we won two Elon Musk tunneling competitions in a row.
Olive Robotics
Olive Robotics is an innovative tech company specializing in creating software-defined, ROS-native hardware modules that seamlessly integrate mechatronic systems in industry with the software world, simplifying and accelerating the development of intelligent robotic applications.
