Big Announcement! 🛰 We're teaming up with Marlan Holding to form Orbitworks, the Middle East’s first private space infrastructure company! Orbitworks is a joint venture between Loft and Marlan Space focused on producing satellite constellations. With initial funding of over $100M, Orbitworks will leverage Loft's expertise in satellite integration, test, and operations. Together, Loft and Marlan Space will build out a satellite integration and test center in Abu Dhabi capable of producing smallsats up to 500kg. We’re excited for Orbitworks to partner with companies across the UAE's booming space sector to fly missions for customers in the UAE, the broader Gulf region, and all over the world.

With Space Symposium lifting off this week, space leaders from around the world are coming together to explore how the latest advances in AI, cloud computing, and satellite technology can transform missions and power innovation at the edge. Microsoft’s Azure Space team has been busy collaborating with partners in government, industry, and academia to discover new ways to unlock earth observation data with AI on satellites - and last month, we launched our first on-orbit testbeds. Through our work on the IMAGIN-e mission with Thales Alenia Space, we’re also enabling the use of on-orbit AI models for climate research, while Loft Orbital is leveraging the Azure Orbital Space edge to demonstrate AI-based virtual missions on its new class of spacecraft, YAM-6. I'm excited about the new features incorporated into the Azure Orbital Space edge SDK (software development kit), making it easier for any developer to create and deploy on-orbit AI applications on our open standard platform. It’s all part of our mission to expand our space partner ecosystem and democratize access to space for enterprises and operators of all sizes!

We're just getting started... This milestone enables us to further accelerate our product development to create the easiest solution for multifamily owners and operators to create an e-commerce leasing experience. Thank you to all of the team members, investors and advisors who have made this possible!
