Romanian Early Game Ventures backs space-tech startup Orbital Matter with EUR 1 mln seed funding

Romanian venture capital fund Early Game Ventures has announced a seed investment of EUR 1 million in Orbital Matter, a promising space-tech startup specializing in advanced construction technology for use in space. With the new investment, the startup aims to reach TRL 8, the “flight-qualified” certification, during its next product launch into space.

Orbital Matter has developed and patented an innovative method that combines liquid materials with extrusion-based 3D printing to build objects in orbit. This technology reduces launch weight by up to 70% and decreases launch volume by a factor of ten.
