About this report
ENPULSION is a European space propulsion company that has quietly become a linchpin in the new space economy. Based in Austria, this deep-tech venture builds ion thrusters for small satellites – technology once limited to superpower space agencies.
Today, ENPULSION’s compact electric propulsion units are powering dozens of CubeSats and microsatellites in orbit, giving even the tiniest European spacecraft the ability to maneuver with precision. This capability is more than a commercial success; it addresses a strategic need for Europe.
Key questions this report answers
