About HyImpulse Technologies

HyImpulse Technologies is a German aerospace company founded in 2018 as a DLR spin-off by Christian Schmierer (CEO), Konstantin Tomilin, Ulrich Fischer and Mario Kobald. It develops hybrid rockets using liquid oxygen and paraffin wax fuel—safer and lower-cost than many conventional propellants—for small-satellite launch and in-space mobility: the SR75 suborbital vehicle, the SL1 orbital launcher (up to about 600 kg to LEO) and HyMove tugs. A successful SR75 test flight took place in Australia in 2024, with commercial SR75 launches planned from SaxaVord (Shetland) and SL1 development continuing. After roughly €45 million raised by October 2025, HyImpulse closed a €50 million-plus Series A extension in September 2026 co-led by JOIN Capital and Ace Capital Partners, with North Ventures, BW-Capital, Bayern Kapital, DLR and returning Campus Founders Ventures; management cites about €125 million total across equity and grants and an order book near €350 million.
