Africa lacks sovereign space capability

Traditional spacecraft development follows an expensive model: build where you design. This doesn't work for emerging markets.

The US/EU VC model fails in Africa due to funding gaps, challenging deal flow, and difficult exits. We needed a different approach.

01

Funding Gap

Limited access to aerospace investment

02

No Manufacturers

Lack of space-quality production

03

Brain Drain

Talent leaving for opportunity

Lift As You Rise

We're building Africa's space value chain through collaboration, not monopoly. A venture studio model with shared infrastructure and horizontal integration.

"Spacecraft the way Samsung builds phones — through shared manufacturing and horizontal integration."
