French SpaceTech Startup Infinite Orbits Secures €40 Million To Expand Satellite Servicing Operations

The capital will support the deployment of its GEO inspection and life-extension satellite fleet and help expand its operational footprint across Europe.

The round saw participation from the European Innovation Council Fund, Matterwave Ventures, Wind Capital, Balnord, IRDI, and Newfund Capital.

“This financing round illustrates how the coordinated mobilisation of European private capital can strategically support the emergence of a leader in in-orbit servicing. With its positioning, the relevance of its service offering, and the excellence of its technical expertise, Infinite Orbits clearly stood out as the ideal European candidate, earning the confidence of customers and investors,” said Adel Haddoud, CEO of Infinite Orbits.

In 2025, the European SpaceTech ecosystem experienced a scattered but significant flow of funding across niches such as in-orbit servicing, satellite inspection and infrastructure, propulsion systems, and space-traffic awareness.

Notable investments include France’s Look Up, which raised €50 million to expand its radar-based space-traffic management network; Belgium’s EDGX, securing €2.3 million to advance onboard edge-computing capabilities for satellites; Spain’s Kreios Space, which closed an €8 million Seed round to develop propulsion systems for very low-Earth orbit; the UK’s Spaceflux, raising €6.1 million to scale its satellite-tracking network; and Germany’s HyImpulse Technologies, attracting €45 million to support launch and propulsion system development.

Together, these rounds account for approximately €111 million in disclosed investment across these adjacent SpaceTech segments.

According to a recent EU-Startups article, the UK’s share of SpaceTech funding remains modest compared with continental Europe, where France and Germany continue to dominate headline investments in sovereign-capability areas.

This indicates that while the servicing and orbital-logistics vertical is gaining traction, much of the capital remains concentrated in select geographies and sub-sectors.

The EIC Fund added: “We warmly congratulate Infinite Orbits on this successful funding round. Their pioneering in-orbit servicing technology – extending the life of satellites and enhancing the sustainability of space operations – embodies the kind of breakthrough innovation Europe needs.”

Founded in 2017, Infinite Orbits is a NewSpace company pioneering in-orbit services with spacecraft powered by its Rendez Vous solution, an autonomous vision-based navigation software.

Supported by a €150 million order book to be delivered over the next three years, the company has earned strong investor confidence. Pursuing a pan-European growth strategy, Infinite Orbits aims to enhance Europe’s space sovereignty by expanding its footprint and replicating trusted partnerships with French sovereign institutions across other European counterparts to strengthen orbital cooperation and resilience.

Wind Capital shared: “The quality of the team was one of the strongest reasons that led us to invest in Infinite Orbits. It’s rare to see a young team that combines such deep scientific expertise with strong commercial acumen. We’re excited to support Infinite Orbits in its mission to strengthen space resilience and sustainability as well as European sovereignty; a perfect fit with Wind’s investment thesis.”

The company is expanding its European footprint with new offices planned in Luxembourg, Spain, the UK, Germany, and Poland. This financing round will also accelerate the deployment of its satellite fleet dedicated to the inspection and life-extension of critical GEO assets, enhancing the security and sustainability of orbital operations.

Matterwave Ventures added: “We were impressed by Infinite Orbit’s pragmatic focus on serving commercially relevant satellite operator use cases in GEO orbits. And the dual use applicability of their capabilities bodes well for the inclusion of Infinite Orbit’s servicers into Europe’s growing sovereign space defence infrastructures.”
