Atomionics is building atomic sensors for navigation and resource exploration. Sensing technology is severely inadequate for a lot of applications navigation and positioning, pinpointing oil and gas reserves, tunnel detection etc. Atomionics builds atomic sensors harnessing quantum mechanical properties of the atoms. This enables measurement ofparameters like gravity, acceleration and rotation with 1000x higher precision and accuracy than the current state of the art, leading to a completely new way of global positioning, and resource exploration. | $12.7M / Seed / Sep 08, 2025 | |

Equatorial Space is a rocket propulsion and launcher startup that aspires to make space launch as safe and affordable as commercial air travel.We will achieve that goal by simplifying the most failure-prone and expensive part of launch vehicles - their propulsion. Our rocket systems are non-explosive, eco-friendly, and halve the componentrequirements while being potentially reusable. This safe and efficient combination is made possible thanks to our proprietary solid fuel composition with a wide range of civilian and military applications.Equatorial Space won the MBRSC Innovation Cup in Dubai in 2018, and graduated from The Hangar by NUS Enterprise programme in Singapore in 2019. We have been featured in a number of regional and international publications including Channel NewsAsia, Nikkei Asian Review and South China Morning Post prior to incorporation of an American C Corporation to foster our growth.In 2021, Equatorial Space secured a place in the inaugural batch of the Q Station Accelerator, backed by the US Space Force and the Air Force Research Lab in Albuquerque, NM, and will soon announce securing a place in a prestigious accelerator programme in California.We are in the process of raising a USD 2m Seed Round to achieve TRL level of 7 with a test vehicle that will prove our rocket fuel in a hypersonic flight regime, which will be ready for launch by mid 2022. We plan to conduct a series of static fire demonstrations in the United States at the NASA Stennis Space Centre around the same time. | $1.5M / Seed / Jul 05, 2024 | |
