Aldoria

Aldoria, formerly known as Share My Space, provides space situational awareness (SSA) and space traffic management (STM) services. The company was founded in 2017 by Romain Lucken, who has a doctorate in Plasma Physics, and inventor-entrepreneur Damien Giolito. The founders were motivated by the growing problem of space debris and the conviction that collaborative efforts are necessary to ensure the sustainable and ethical use of Earth's orbit.

Aldoria operates a proprietary global network of optical surveillance stations to track satellites and space debris, predict collision risks, and provide real-time orbital intelligence. The company's technology is based on unique optical detection capabilities combined with data processing pipelines that utilize celestial mechanics and artificial intelligence. This allows for the precise tracking and identification of space objects, offering insights into their position, trajectory, and potential threats. Their services include collision avoidance for launches (COLA) and in-orbit operations (CALM), neighborhood monitoring (Watcher), and custom tracking.

The firm serves a diverse client base, including governments, space agencies like CNES, commercial satellite operators, and New Space companies. Revenue is generated by providing data and services that help clients manage orbital risks, protect space assets, and optimize traffic coordination. In January 2024, the company, then named Share My Space, announced it had raised €10 million in a Series A funding round, bringing its total investment to over €22 million, and rebranded to Aldoria. The company plans to expand its network from six to twelve observation stations and develop a multi-sensor approach.
