• The financing supports EnduroSat’s development of software-defined NanoSatellites and its new Shared Satellite Service
• The EIB support will also create highly skilled jobs in the European Union’s space sector, and have positive environmental benefits in orbit, indirectly favouring the reduction of space debris
• First venture debt operation in Bulgaria under the European Guarantee Fund (EGF)

The European Investment Bank (EIB), the long-term lending institution of the European Union, and EnduroSat, a fast-growing Bulgarian company providing solutions for the global Space market, announced a venture debt financing agreement of up to €10 million. The financing is being offered under a newly available venture debt instrument backed by the European Guarantee Fund (EGF), which was set up by the EIB to support EU businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The EIB investment will back EnduroSat’s growth and job creation to further develop the company’s innovative, high-performance and affordable NanoSatellites and space services for business, exploration, and science teams across the Globe. It will also support the expansion of EnduroSat’s disruptive Shared Satellite Service. This new concept democratises access to space data. It allows customers to lease the company’s satellites to deploy sensors and instruments instead of developing their own satellite fleets.

The Shared Satellite Service streamlines space operations by covering all aspects of the process — from payload (customer cargo) integration and launch all the way to data command and control via a simplified cloud-based user interface. Its goal is to help drive innovation at the final frontier by providing easy access to space to visionary entrepreneurs, scientists and technologists. This new access to space data will also have a positive environmental impact with fewer small satellite launches required, leading to reduced space debris.

EIB Vice-President Lilyana Pavlova commented: “The first European Guarantee Fund venture debt signature with the Bulgarian scaleup EnduroSat is excellent news for the Bulgarian economy and Europe’s competitiveness as a whole. It promotes a new space industry segment that aims to democratise and improve access to space and related space technologies and applications for everyone in a way that respects the environment. As such, it will help boost jobs and innovation in a highly disruptive and cutting-edge sector that will define our future.”

EnduroSat’s Founder & CEO Raycho Raychev said: “We are thrilled to announce our partnership with the European Investment Bank (EIB). The investment/financing will streamline our mission of empowering academia, businesses, and science teams across the globe to test and validate their technology in space. EnduroSat has been working hard to develop software-defined NanoSats, offering simple in-orbit operations and data handling. Our Shared Satellite Service radically simplifies the process of getting your payload to space in a significantly shorter time.”

Financing new space

The global space economy has been growing at nearly twice the rate of the broader economy (pre-COVID) and is undergoing considerable changes. Many new private companies are entering a market that has long been dominated by government-run entities. According to the European Space Agency (ESA), every €1 invested in the space sector returns an average of €6 to the economy, making the sector essential for growth, competitiveness and high-tech employment. Space technology in orbit and applications on Earth are relevant across a large number of industries, including maritime, aviation, agriculture, natural resource management, insurance, financial trading and logistics.

The European Union has flagship programmes like Copernicus and Galileo that provide Europe with autonomous space capabilities, and is also embracing the changes of the new space sector with various funding vehicles. The EIB Group provides direct venture financing for later-stage, fast-growing companies, and through the European Investment Fund (EIF) backs various venture funds to support European space startups at earlier development stages. With the direct financing of EnduroSat, the EIB adds a third New space company to its venture debt portfolio, following the financing of Spire Global and D-Orbit in 2020.

In addition to its financing, the EIB is supporting the development of a European new space sector through its Advisory Services, in collaboration with the European Commission. The services produced a market study on The future of the European space sector and initiated the EIB Space Finance Lab. The lab connects space companies and financiers, helping companies tap into EIB and other patient capital sources.
