About Us
When it comes to Space Separation Systems, failure is not an option. Occam Space originated from the idea that we could make a difference by combining an extensive expertise in separation systems for “Old Space” and applying some of the principles of the “New Space” to develop the most suitable products for the emerging Smallsat market. Our Mission is to do this… while keeping it simple… and affordable.
OCCAM SPACE is a technology-based company (EBT) promoted by the Business Incubator of the Science Park of the University Carlos III of Madrid. OCCAM SPACE is hosted at Puerta Innovación of the Madrid City Council.
