AICRAFT named among the most innovative space startups to watch in 2025 by SpaceConnect
SpaceConnect has recently released its list of the top five space startups to watch in 2025, spotlighting AICRAFT as one of the most innovative ones.
2024 marked a breakthrough year for AICRAFT, the creator of low-power smart computing systems with AI capabilities. From nanosatellites to Earth observation missions, AICRAFT’s technology, led by CEO Dr. Tony Scoleri is actively involved in real-time data processing.
The year began with a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with ResearchSat, to enable automated AI analysis and feedback of biology experiments in space. By April, AICRAFT earned a silver award as one of Australia’s Top 50 Most Innovative Manufacturers. Shortly after, a partnership with Europe’s Scanway Space showcased the company’s edge device, modifying methane monitoring in Earth’s atmosphere.
AICRAFT’s global presence expanded mid-year through the International SpaceTech Startup Supporting Program (TAcc+), resulting in three new MoUs with Taiwanese companies. The momentum continued with $100,000 AUD secured from the South Australian Space Innovation Fund, fuelling collaboration with India’s Guerin Technologies. Adding to its accolades, AICRAFT became a finalist in the South Australian Premier’s Business and Export Awards.
