Morpheus Space is an aerospace company that produces a modular and electric propulsion system for the small satellite industry. The company is disrupting the NewSpace industry by introducing Agile Constellations, a fusion between cutting-edge electric propulsion and Artificial Intelligence. The solution package enables satellite service providers to operate entire constellations as one entity. Thanks to the highly efficient propulsion systems, each satellite can perform countless orbital maneuvers, which allows for the first time the possibility of "objective first" mission planning with an automated trade-off. This provides a never before seen flexibility of satellite networks that is exploited by the A.I. to optimally morph the constellations to fulfill the user's objectives, which can range from revisit frequencies to observation of moving POIs.

Micropsi Industries is building cognitive machines: Theyr’re providing high-end machine learning solutions for robotics and process control. micropsi industries MIRAI is a robot control system designed for complex assembly tasks. MIRAI-controlled robots perform movements that react to minute changes in the environment, as perceived by the robot with cameras or force sensors. MIRAI skills aren't programmed, but trained - through demonstration, correction, and repetition. This allows users to create skills without writing a single line of code or modelling the problem. The company was founded in 2014 by a group of experienced entrepreneurs, software engineers and scientists, most of them with cognitive science or machine learning backgrounds. micropsi industries is backed by Vito Ventures, coparion, and a group of experienced business angels from Munich and Berlin.
