The Right Fit for your Space Project
Staffed by a highly qualified team of engineers with more than twelve years’ experience in developing CubeSats, combined with state-of-the-art technology and processes based on European sector standards (ESA-ECSS), Alén Space is firmly positioned at the forefront of the nanosatellite sector in Spain, Europe and Latin America.
At Alén Space we have the technology and know-how to help your company or start-up take your business into space based on the design, production and operation of small satellites for the applications you require. We offer the quality and technology that have been the hallmarks of our work since 2008.
Pioneers to the Forefront of Business
Here at Alén Space we also consider ourselves to be pioneers in New Space. A brief journey in time takes us back to 2008 and our early days in the University of Vigo’s Strategic Aerospace Group, responsible for the 2012 launch of Xatcobeo, Spain’s first nanosatellite.
A decade after the group’s creation, a spin-off was set up by the same team of professionals aimed at commercialising the services and products developed up until then. The name of this company was Alén Space, an organisation combining the experience, know-how and technology accumulated over ten intense years.
A Team Forged with the UN, ESA and NASA
The Alén Space team has worked on a number of projects with some of the world’s leading space organisations and agencies. The ESA, NASA, the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA), the Brazilian Space Agency (AEB in its Brazilian initials) and the Spanish National Aerospace Agency (INTA in its Spanish initials) have all backed a number of our projects, producing unbeatable results. All the nanosatellites developed by the Alén Space team have successfully completed their missions, enabling us to boast a 100% success rate.
