Milan, Italy, 16 October 2025: Leaf Space has been awarded “Scale-Up of the Year” at the first Astrospace Awards, announced during the ESPLORAZIONI 2025 event in Torino on 11 October 2025. The jury cited Leaf Space for scaling one of the sector’s least visible yet most essential domains: ground communications for satellites.

We are working on scaling network expansion and operational resilience while maintaining the commercial momentum going:

• Product evolution: We are continuously enhancing our existing product lines to deliver higher performance, reliability and automation, while at the same time heavily investing in the design and production of our next-generation product.
• Commercial acceleration: 2025 is a record year for new customers and missions onboarded. @Ludovic Court What can we say?
• Network build-out: New sites progressing in Canada, Spain(Ka-band) and UAE with 4 antennas activated recently in August 2025.
• Operations and tooling: Company-wide initiatives on observability and predictive operations, with standardized SLAs, maintenance and test processes across the network

“We’re proud to receive this recognition, it proves that innovation in space doesn’t always need the spotlight. Sometimes it’s about building the invisible infrastructure that makes everything else possible” said Cristina Zanchi, CEO of Leaf Space.

Thank you, AstroSpace. The mission continues: simple, seamless space connectivity.
