• SITAEL announces a growth plan targeting €200 million in revenues by 2031, currently supported by over €150 million in backlog and nine launches planned by 2030.• The company confirms its role as prime contractor for ESA’s Scout HiBiDiS mission, strengthening its position in European space infrastructure.• MoU signed with Eycore: new collaborations in Earth observation and advanced satellite services.
SITAEL, the Italian private space company and part of Angel Holding, presented its growth strategy at SmallSat Europe Amsterdam, built on ten years of investment in satellite platforms, electric propulsion and production infrastructure. The plan fits within Europe’s new space cycle, in which secure communications, Earth observation, defence and technological sovereignty require robust industrial capabilities.
“Europe is entering a new space cycle. SITAEL is ready to industrialise it,” said Chiara Pertosa, CEO of SITAEL. “For years, we invested ahead of the market. Today, the market is moving towards the capabilities we have built: facilities, platforms, propulsion, missions, customers and a clear growth trajectory.”
SITAEL operates through two industrial hubs in Italy: Mola di Bari, with a state-of-the-art clean room and five satellites under construction simultaneously; and Pisa, where a production line for Hall-effect electric propulsion was inaugurated in July 2025.
