Latest revision as of 18:53, 29 September 2026

Space Capital LP is an early-stage venture capital firm that invests exclusively in space-based technologies.[1][2] Formed in 2012, it is based in New York City. Originally known as Space Angels, it adopted the Space Capital name in 2020.[3][4]

History

Originally founded in 2007 as an angel investor network, the firm's scale was limited by its informal structure.[5] In 2012, Chad Anderson became CEO and by 2015 transitioned Space Angels away from the decentralized investing model typical of angel networks.[5] In 2015, Anderson re-founded the company and launched its first special purpose vehicle (SPV) fund.[5][6][7]

In 2017, Space Capital[8] launched its first institutional venture capital fund of $16 million, with Tom Ingersoll joining as partner.[9] By 2024, the firm had grown to three funds and over $100 million under management.[10][11][12] Their investments are focused on space-based technologies such as GPS, geospatial intelligence, and satellite communications.[13]

In 2020, Space Capital formalized its brand architecture with Space Capital as the parent brand and Space Angels (founded in 2007),[1] an online angel investment platform, and Space Talent, a career platform and central node for space industry jobs, as its sub-brands.[14]

As of 2026, the firm manages over $1 billion in assets across four funds.[15][16][17]

Publications

Space Capital began publishing a quarterly update on space startup and investment activity in 2017, which coined the 2010s as the entrepreneurial space age.[18][19][20] The report has been cited by the United States Secretary of Commerce[21] and by the Vice President of the United States at the sixth meeting of the National Space Council.[22]
