Six years of development. Starting with zero customers. One clear mission to make space more sustainable.
In our latest episode of TECHNE Connect to Visionaries, we're joined by Sara Correyero Plaza, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of IENAI Space, to explore the journey of developing next-generation propulsion technology for satellites.
From an initial university research project to seeing their technology reach orbit, Sara shares the challenges, milestones and lessons behind building IENAI Space.
In this episode, we discuss:
- How IENAI Space evolved from a research idea into a growing space technology company.
- Why propulsion technology is becoming increasingly important for sustainable satellite operations.
- The challenges of developing new technology and bringing it to market.
- The engineering expertise needed to support the next generation of space missions.
As more satellites enter orbit, the need for better mobility, manoeuvrability and responsible end-of-life management continues to grow.
A great conversation about innovation, entrepreneurship and what it takes to build a company in the space industry.
