Star Catcher

5220 Shad Road Suite 407, Jacksonville, FL, 32257, United States

Overview

Star Catcher is developing an orbital optical power-beaming energy infrastructure designed to transmit concentrated, conditioned solar energy to client satellites, enabling up to 10x more power without receiver retrofits. The company has demonstrated world-record optical power beaming performance and completed a critical on-orbit subsystem demonstration, validating its end-to-end system architecture. Star Catcher has signed seven power purchase agreements, secured multiple government contracts, and manages a qualified commercial pipeline representing more than $3 billion in projected annual recurring revenue. It plans to launch the first space-based optical power beaming demonstration later this year and is already advancing a second mission to retire technical risk and deploy operational capability. Financially, Star Catcher has raised $88 million to date, including a $65 million Series A intended to scale engineering, operations, commercial expansion, and national security engagement.
