Software-defined satellite and ground-segment operations platform
About Leanspace
Leanspace is a European satellite-operations software company founded in 2020 that provides a software-defined platform for satellite monitoring and control, mission planning, ground-segment orchestration and hardware testing. Flight-proven with more than 20 spacecraft operators (including Quantum Space, Look Up and Clearspace) and expanding into enterprise and institutional programmes with customers such as Airbus Defence and Space, Hispasat and ESA, Leanspace covers small satellites, in-orbit vehicles, constellations, launchers and spaceports, large satellites and ground-station networks. In September 2026 Leanspace raised a €10 million Series A with new strategic investors ISAI Cap Venture (Capgemini) and Qwaltec alongside 42CAP, Karista and Preligens co-founder Arnaud Guérin, plus non-dilutive support from Caisse d’Epargne and Bpifrance (France 2030), to accelerate software-defined operations for large, security-critical programmes in Europe and North America.
