COMPANY OVERVIEW

Fleet Space Technologies is Australia’s leading space exploration company revolutionising critical mineral discovery, space technologies, and defence with its satellite-enabled solutions and end-to-end mineral exploration solution powered by space and AI, Exosphere by Fleet®.

Headquartered at the national centre of Australia’s space industry in Adelaide, Fleet Space has a global footprint with over 130+ employees worldwide.

Fleet Space specialises in ultra-efficient satellite connectivity, edge computing, and additive manufacturing for advanced space technologies. This enabled Fleet Space to build, launch, and operate Australia’s first LEO satellite constellation and develop the world’s first space-enabled mineral exploration solution - ExoSphere - which leverages advanced satellite connectivity, 3D multiphysics, and AI to map mineral systems in real-time with near-zero environmental impact. A paradigm shift in the exploration industry, ExoSphere is a critical technology to strengthen and unlock sustainability benefits for domestic critical mineral supply chains in support of broader national security strategies of allies and international partners.

A leader in the New Space industry, Fleet Space is a proven force multiplier of Australia’s sovereign space capabilities and the domestically led space and defence industry.

In 2026, Fleet Space will send a lunar variant of the company’s ExoSphere technology - SPIDER - to the Moon to search for water ice as part of a NASA CLPs initiative. Fleet Space is also unlocking new space based defence capabilities for Australia and its allies, including resilient narrowband SATCOM as part of the Australian Defence Space Command’s ASCEND2LEO program.

Fleet Space’s sustained innovation in mineral discovery, space exploration, and defence has fuelled the company’s exponential growth over the past year, which included a A$50 million Series C, a doubling in valuation to A$350 million, and recognition as Australia’s fastest growing company.
