Comment by Mr. Tadanori Fukushima, Representative Director and CEO 

We are delighted to celebrate our first anniversary with our team and all of our investors and stakeholders, who have continued to support us.   Since our establishment on January 12, 2024, we have been engaged in the Satellite LiDAR and Space Debris Removal businesses with the mission of ‘By powering innovative satellite laser technology, Orbital Lasers is shaping a better future for humanity and society in this great era of space exploration.”      

We began with just a few individuals, but we have experienced steady growth over the past year. We successfully raised 900 million Yen in our seed round and expanded our team to over 30 members. I want to take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to everyone who has supported us and shared our vision for the future. Thank you all for being part of this journey. 

We are currently developing high-efficiency, high-power satellite laser technology. Our development is driven by user needs, making each technology’s pursuit quite challenging. We have assembled a team of experts with extensive experience in lasers, optical systems, and satellites, and we are confident in our ability to succeed. I look forward to collaborating with all of you as we strive to become the world’s leading technology group in the satellite laser field and a leader in the global market. 

Over the past year, we have achieved significant business results, including receiving an order from JAXA for a conceptual design contract for LiDAR satellites and forming a partnership with an Indian space operator for collaboration in the space debris removal sector. We plan to establish a factory in the next fiscal year to develop and manufacture laser satellites. Through Series A financing, we aim to accelerate our growth even further. To learn more about our history, projects, and vision for the future, please visit https://www.orbitallasers.com/.
