Northwood Space Raises $375M to Expand Satellite Ground Network
Northwood Space Corp. secured $375 million to scale its shared, multi-orbit ground network serving commercial, U.S. government, and allied customers.
Northwood Space Corp. announced Monday it has raised $375 million in new funding to expand the ground infrastructure that links satellites in orbit to users on Earth, the Torrance, California-based company said in a statement.
The capital will be directed toward scaling Northwood's shared, multi-orbit ground network, a system designed to serve a broad client base that includes commercial operators, U.S. government agencies, and allied nation customers. The multi-orbit architecture means the network is built to handle connectivity across low, medium, and geostationary orbital bands simultaneously.
