Ramon.Space — a leader in space computing solutions — announced it has raised $17.5 million in Series A funding. This round of funding includes StageOne Ventures, Deep Insight, WorldQuant Ventures, UMC Capital and existing investor Grove Ventures. And the funding will be used to continue development of the company’s computing solutions, support its rapidly expanding US and Israel operations, and expand the team globally.
Ramon.Space is building space resilient super-computing systems that revolutionize the way software is written, applied, and processed in space. The use of software in space has been limited since the hardware needed to support it could not function in such harsh conditions.
Ramon.Space is aiming to transform the way software and hardware are used in space so applications can be developed, updated and adapted in real-time while creating new possibilities for space satellite payloads and deep space missions. And the company’s computing and storage platform utilizes Manycore ML/AI/DSP processing technology to power next generation earth observation, communications and data processing applications, bringing them to levels of advancement that could not be achieved before.
