- ALL.SPACE
Led · Series B · Feb 2021
Founded in 2013 (originally as Isotropic Systems Ltd), ALL.SPACE specialises in multi-orbit satellite communications terminals that can connect simultaneously to multiple satellite constellations and cellular networks. Its flagship multi-link terminal underpins a broader strategy to deliver resilient, converged communications for commercial and defence customers on land and at sea. Leveraging this platform, the company is developing an alternative Position, Navigation and Timing (Alt-PNT) capability that uses ambient ‘signals of opportunity’ to provide accurate location data when GNSS signals are jammed or spoofed. The Alt-PNT functionality will be embedded in the company’s terminals and offered via a Software-as-a-Service model. ALL.SPACE has completed development programmes with the European Space Agency (ESA), the UK Ministry of Defence and the U.S. Department of Defense, and has secured multiple commercial and military contracts, although no revenue or user numbers were disclosed. This new navigation initiative extends the firm’s portfolio and supports its goal of delivering sovereign, secure communications and navigation solutions worldwide.
