ORiS raises €5M for orbital laser power
4 min read
Turin-based ORiS raised €5 million to develop laser power beaming for satellites, enabling in-orbit recharging. The round includes a €4.5 million pre-seed led by Earlybird and Pitchdrive, plus a €0.5 million Piedmont Region grant. Its closest demonstration used a NATO-backed drone. A flight model is due by July, with an in-orbit test planned for 2027.
