Spire Global is a satellite-powered data services and analytics provider focused on the collection of RF signals at a global scale in near real time. Spire designs, builds and operates an expanding LEO constellation of over 84 3U CubeSats, a network of 30+ of ground stations, a real-time acquisition and processing system, and a cloud-based data distribution service.Spire delivers insights into the parts of the world where collecting data is notoriously difficult.Sense - Maritime DataSatellite Automatic Identification System (AIS) reveals vessel movements in the open ocean and remote places that terrestrial AIS simply cannot reach. Sense provides global AIS coverage and optionally advanced analytics including a database of over 300,000 unique ships and vessel movement prediction – all available through a simple API call.AirSafe - Aviation DataGround-based air traffic surveillance is designed to work around airports and populated areas but falls short or simply doesn’t exist over oceanic areas or the poles. Satellite-based Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) coverage is free from those limitations and is the only way to reliably track aircraft over oceans and remote regions.Stratos - Weather DataFor the last two decades, forecast models have gotten better despite degradation in the quality of data inputs. Stratos reverses that trend by providing commercial satellite weather data that supercharges forecasting models. Each data sample collected using Global Navigation System - Radio Occultation (GPS-RO) provides an incredibly accurate reading of a slice of the atmosphere.Custom - Bespoke Sensor PayloadsThe ability to have a new sensor deployed globally in just months is the holy grail of signals intelligence. Spire’s satellites are built to accept and host new payloads quickly, allowing for an incredibly fast rollout of new capabilities. Spire’s launch schedule allows for new sensors to be launched in around six months.

SES Government Solutions (SES GS) expands global communications capabilities of the U.S. Government by providing reliable and secure fixed commercial satellite services as well as timely and affordable solutions to access space. With over four decades of U.S. Government experience, SES GS’s sole purpose is to provide bandwidth, end-to-end satellite communications solutions and hosted payload opportunities to U.S. Government, Intelligence and Civilian agencies.

The National Space Society (NSS) is an independent, educational, grassroots, non-profit organization dedicated to the creation of a spacefaring civilization. Tracing its roots back to Werner Von Braun as the first president of the National Space Institute (1974) and to the L5 Society (1975), which merged to form NSS in 1987, NSS is widely acknowledged as the preeminent citizen's voice on space. NSS has over 12,000 members and over 50 chapters in the United States and around the world. The society also publishes Ad Astra magazine, an award-winning periodical chronicling the most important developments in space.

The DARPA Service Chiefs’ Fellows Program (SCFP) was established to immerse outstanding military officers and Government civilians into imaginative and innovative, fast-paced science and technology research. Fellows from each Service have the opportunity to dive deeply into specific technology development in areas of interest to them and to their respective Service, as well as a chance to understand the breadth of DARPA research across the spectrum of technology development. Exposure to the innovation process allows Fellows to return to the field with an appreciation for the Agency’s role in supporting DoD missions by preventing and creating strategic surprise on short-and long-term scales. Upon completion of their assignment to SCFP, Fellows create an effective liaison between DARPA and the Services due in large part to the close relationships forged during the program and the experiential understanding of DARPA's technology development process.
