## About Skynopy

Skynopy is a French NewSpace startup founded in October 2023 by Pierre Bertrand and Antonin Hirsch, both former executives at Loft Orbital.

Based in Paris, Skynopy specializes in B2B telecommunications and networking, focusing on satellite-ground connectivity solutions for Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites. The company addresses the growing demand for reliable and cost-effective ground infrastructure, positioning itself as a "connectivity-as-a-service" provider that allows satellite operators to access scalable and virtualized networks without the need for significant infrastructure investment. Skynopy's primary offering is Ground Station as a Service (GSaaS), which enables satellite operators to download mission data, send commands, and access telemetry services on-demand. The company utilizes a hybrid ground network that integrates underutilized ground stations, ensuring high-bandwidth, low-latency communications. Skynopy's innovative connectivity kits and cloud-native software platform facilitate rapid mission onboarding and constellation expansion, making satellite connectivity as straightforward as using a smartphone. With significant funding and partnerships with major industry players, Skynopy is poised to lead in the satellite-ground connectivity market.
