SPiN has been ranked among the top five finalists of the “Industry for the Smart Integration Satellite Capability” challenge promoted by Lazio Innova, the in-house innovation company of Regione Lazio (Italy), and Thales Alenia Space.
Participants at the challenge were invited to propose innovative solutions to develop intelligent factories (Smart Factory) based on integrated lines for Assembly, Integration, and Testing (AIT) for the onboard components of small satellites.
The selected finalists will participate in a co-design process focusing on the proposed Solutions. At the end of the mentoring path, the innovators will present their final proposals on an open innovation day.
SPiN, which aims to semplify space manufacturing using plug-and-play modular systems to lower costs and speed up building time, looks forward to joining the challenge and transform satellites into real modular systems!
