It operates the Middle East’s first dedicated satellite assembly facility: a 5000 m² plant capable of integrating and testing up to 50 satellites per year (each up to 500 kg). Orbitworks provides end-to-end satellite integration testing and launch services to deploy constellations for Earth observation communications and science missions. It also offers software-defined satellite operations enabling customers to run AI and compute tasks on orbit using Loft Orbital’s platform.
