- Step Lab
Participated · Series A · Aug 2026
Founded in June 2021 by Oh Hyun-ung, Step Lab develops space-grade mechanism technology including a launch-vibration-reducing separation ring used to connect and detach satellites from launch vehicles. Its flagship products include the separation ring and STEP POD, a CubeSat deployer that integrates an in-house vibration isolation system and is slated to fly aboard DaejeonSAT-1, giving the company its first flight heritage. Step Lab has expanded into payload technology, building a 4-meter-class, three-stage deployable SAR mesh antenna and developing an AI-based zoom optical module for space domain awareness through Korea’s Scale-up TIPS program. The company has also developed full small-satellite systems-integration capability via its DaejeonSAT-1 work, which will carry a selfie camera to confirm on-orbit status. With the recent Series A, Step Lab plans to scale mass production of its flight-proven mechanisms and accelerate global commercialization.

- a2sys
Participated · Seed · Jun 2026
a2sys is developing a software platform aimed at optimising memory utilisation and data movement for AI infrastructure.

The founders argue that AI's evolution toward agentic systems is shifting bottlenecks from GPU computation to memory and data transfer efficiency. a2sys announced a KRW 16 billion (about $11M) seed raise to support development of its platform.
