In the late 2010s, the Japanese government initiatives began focusing on nurturing the space industry, drawing attention and involvement from numerous non-space sector giants. This shift brought space into the public spotlight as a growth industry. Responding to the surging demand for microsatellites, Axelspace made the strategic decision to pioneer a new satellite development approach. This method integrates versatile satellite system design, facilitating the mass production of diverse products.
In 2022, we transitioned our dedicated satellite development business into a new business called AxelLiner aiming to prepare for an era where many satellites are launched on a monthly basis. To achieve this, we're accelerating satellite research and development, while also propelling business expansion through satellites.

While space has traditionally been valued for its uniqueness, recent changes, such as an influx of companies entering the space sector and rapid development in related industries, have reshaped its significance. Specifically, these shifts redefine the success of the space industry by aligning space business practices more closely with those of traditional Earth-bound enterprises.
Embracing the company vision of “Space within Your Reach” from our beginnings, we take pride in our role in shaping the evolution of the space industry with the transformation of our organizational and business structure. We have brought together a wide range of talent from various nationalities, age groups, and industries to foster a diverse and energetic team. Additionally, by adopting cutting-edge digital and security technologies as one of our key business strategies, we have transitioned to a software-centered business model, facilitated through the establishment of dedicated, specialized teams.

Furthermore, Axelspace is committed to promoting sustainability in every aspect of our operations as a member of the space community. Sustainability plays a crucial role not only in environmental solutions derived from Earth observation data, such as forest conservation, but also in the domain of satellite development. With growing concerns over space debris, we recognize the imperative to embed sustainability across the entire lifecycle of satellite projects. That's why we've taken proactive steps to implement the Green Spacecraft Standard: a comprehensive framework ensuring sustainability standards are met from manufacturing and launch to operation and disposal. Our aim is to promote these standards across the space industry, nurturing the growth of sustainable space enterprises.
