Fresh off a big fundraising round, Kepler Communications has received money from the Canadian Space Agency’s Space Technology Development Program or STDP to advance its satellite communications.

With the successful launch of the SpaceX Transporter-7 ridesharing mission early Saturday morning April 15, payloads from three Canadian companies made it to orbit.

Kepler Communications today announced it had closed its Series C round and raising USD$92 million. This follows an oversubscribed Series B in June of 2021 where they raised USD$60 million.

While 2022 only saw seven Canadian satellites launched, 2023 could see at least 21, if not more. As well, we could see the first test launch of a suborbital rocket from Spaceport Nova Scotia.
