Capsule Corporation develops water-based electric propulsion systems, with its core product WaterCube designed for CubeSat and smallsat platforms. The company is advancing a higher-performance WaterCube+ variant alongside the baseline unit, targeting TRL 5 for WaterCube+ by Q1 2027. Capsule plans an in-orbit demonstration of WaterCube on a SpaceX Falcon 9 in Q4 2026 as a stepping stone to commercial deployment. It aims to enter the market in early 2027 and is investing in a scalable production chain with standardized assembly to serve growing global demand. Financially, the company recently raised 800,000 in a seed round backed by CDP Venture Capital SGR (via Takeoff Accelerator), kopa ventures, Moonstone Venture Capital and business angels. Francesco Marino and Ivan Nizzola are cited as CEO and COO and co-founders involved in driving the company's industrialization and commercialization efforts.
