Alta Ares develops AI powered hardware & agnostic software for both ISR and counter-UAS missions. With responsiveness and agility, we rapidly develop and test agnostic software for all-in-one field-deployed solutions, all powered by AI.

We build better alternatives to materials that are critical, but insecure. Using the latest advances in AI models and lab automation, altrove designs and builds alternatives to materials we need to reach Net Zero, but for which supply cant meet demand.

Satellites are key to innovation, still, most satellite builders invest time and resources in developing operating systems instead of focusing on the actual innovation part. The satellite industry is experiencing explosive growth driven by new and groundbreaking use cases. However, the lack of dedicated software forces satellite builders to create custom software stacks, draining valuable time, money, and expertise. These in-house solutions often lead to: - Inefficiency that hinders the adoption of new technologies and drives up costs. - Security risks that expose payloads to cyber threats. - Resources spent on non-core activities, reducing overall profitability. Enter SpaceOS: The first "Secure by Design" and sustainable operating system tailored for the New Space era. Developed by the pioneers behind a transformative cloud computing stack (acquired by Docker), SpaceOS is the ultimate enabler for satellite innovation. SpaceOS transforms the satellite ecosystem as everybody benefits: For New Entrants: Reduces barriers to deploying payloads with shared payload capabilities. Simplifies deployment with a plug-and-play solution, empowering innovators to compete on a level playing field. For Satellite Operators: Maximizes onboard resources to support 10-30x more software packages on the same hardware, boosting efficiency and sustainability. Monetize underutilized resources through secure payload sharing, unlocking new revenue streams. For Satellite Builders: Saves time and cuts costs by leveraging an out-of-the-box, optimized platform. For Software Developers: Develop once and deploy effortlessly across multiple satellites, thanks to a standardized platform. For the Future: A system that evolves in tandem with the latest innovations Stop reinventing the wheel and start building the future. With SpaceOS, the sky is no longer the limit; it’s your launchpad.

Le Lab Quantique is a French nonprofit in support of the Global Quantum Ecosystem whose aim is to foster the emergence of talents capable of tackling the major challenges of Quantum and Deep Physics and also to guide and support the development of entrepreneurial projects (start-ups and corporate projects) as they bring new products and services to markets.

Beyond Aero is building the first electric business aircraft powered by hydrogen propulsion, enabling six passengers to fly up to 800 NM (1,500 km), a range unattainable with battery-electric aircraft. Founded in December 2020, the company is redesigning the architecture of an aircraft around hydrogen-electric propulsion, focusing on fuel cell technology, gaseous hydrogen tank integration, and advanced cooling systems. With offices in Toulouse, Paris, and Los Angeles, the company boasts a team of over 80 highly qualified engineers from leading aerospace companies. Beyond Aero has secured over $50 million in funding, backed by investors such as Giant Ventures, Bpifrance, and prior supporters like Initialized Capital, Female Founders Fund, and 7 Percent Ventures. Beyond Aero also completed Y Combinator in 2022. The company has secured $1.1bn in Letters of Intent (LOIs), completed France’s first manned, fully hydrogen-electric flight, and acquired Universal Hydrogen Co.s assets, IP, and flight data. Beyond Aero is a member of the World Economic Forum’s First Movers Coalition and the Alliance for Zero Emission Aviation, underscoring its commitment to electrifying aviation with hydrogen propulsion.
