Building all-electric passenger aircraft with real range.
Aviation is one of the fastest-growing greenhouse gas emitters, and simultaneously the only large industrial sector without an identified decarbonization pathway. From a sustainability and operating economics perspective, the electrification of aviation stands out as the clear long-term solution. However, current attempts at electric aircraft development are suffering from too short flight ranges. Cosmic is building the world's first all-electric passenger aircraft that's capable of flying real aircraft ranges without the need for battery miracles. By focusing on the development of highly efficient airframes and propulsion systems, Cosmic aims to build aircraft that can cover 50% of the global aviation market by range with batteries that are available today.

Making the Space Data Revolution Possible
Tilebox revolutionises the creation of scalable data pipelines from the ground up. Envision it as a dedicated ELT (extract, load, transform) tool, tailor-made for handling space data! The unique appeal of Tilebox lies in its seamless integration of multiple space service providers through a single interface. Consequently, companies gain access to data immediately after a launch. Tilebox's proficient and optimised data processing orchestrator deftly eliminates superfluous data movement, consequently diminishing egress and computing expenses. Moreover, the implementation of intricate use cases such as AI/ML algorithms is streamlined, reducing friction and allowing for the direct optimization of data processing pipelines. By harnessing the power of Tilebox in-orbit, companies can substantially reduce downstream volumes and latency, thereby enhancing overall data efficiency.

Uluu’s products act like plastic but are made from seaweed, not fossil fuels. They’re strong, lightweight and waterproof, while being truly biodegradable and biocompatible. Uluu is naturally produced via fermentation. This process uses saltwater microbes fed with farmed seaweed—a regeneratively-grown feedstock that can be scaled to entirely replace the fossil fuels used to make 400 million tonnes of plastic each year, all while sequestering carbon and bioremediating our oceans. Uluu can be directly substituted for plastic in existing manufacturing equipment, including to produce fibres that can replace polyester in textiles.
