Mumbai/Hyderabad, 4th March 2025 – SpaceTech startup TakeMe2Space has raised Rs 5.5 Crore in a pre-seed round led by Seafund. The round also saw participation from Blume Ventures, Artha Venture Fund, AC Ventures. and other marquee angels.  TakeMe2Space plans to use the funds raised towards the launch of MOI-1 – India’s first AI-labratory in space. The Company has successfully finished 2 space missions in collaboration with ISRO’s POEM platform. TM2S demonstrated a novel radiation shielding coat.

Founded in 2024 by Ronak Kumar Samantray, TakeMe2Space is a SpaceTech startup that redefines satellite applications by addressing data processing challenges directly in space. The company aims to provide accessible space research opportunities and democratize space exploration by emphasising on enhancing domestic capabilities in radiation shielding, propulsion systems, and inter-satellite communications, which collectively will further empower the sector.

TakeMe2Space with its upcoming MOI-1 launch will focus to ensure the 15+ early customers for AI-lab have a smooth experience of running their orbital applications. In the short term, the company’s GTM would be focused on doubling down on adoption of TM2S developed satellite subsystems in India, Australia and Europe.

In the last 12 months, TakeME2Space has expanded to a team of 17+ members. The company’s robust engineering staff has built over 15 satellite sensors and subsystems.

Key Achievements:

  • AI Execution in Space: MOI-TD successfully demonstrated the ability to uplink large AI models from a ground station, execute external code on the satellite, and securely downlink encoded and encrypted results.
  • Full System Validation: The mission successfully tested all critical subsystems, including:
  • Sensors: Sun Sensor, Horizon Sensor, Solar Cell, IMUs
  • Actuators: MagnetoTorquers, AirTorquers, Reaction Wheel
  • Computing Infrastructure: Zero Cube AI Accelerator, POEM Adapter Board
  • Operational Success: The AI payload executed multiple real-time processing tasks, validating the system’s ability to process Earth observation data on orbit.

Commenting on the investment, Manoj Kumar Agarwal, Managing Partner, Seafund , says, “As a deep tech focused fund, we believe emerging technologies like space tech have the ability to unlock highly impactful solutions at scale. The Indian space industry has witnessed remarkable technological accomplishments. With the Indian Government’s various initiatives and policy schemes to augment the capabilities in Space technology development will further boost the sector. TakeMe2Space has been working tirelessly with its upcoming MOI-1 launch which will be a game changer towards building data centres in space. The funding will help the company scale to the next stage and also expand its satellite subsystems on a global level.”

The Company aims to scale operations, launch in new regions, expand its product portfolio, strengthen R&D, and drive customer acquisition.

Ronak Kumar Samantray, Founder & CEO, TakeMe2Space, says, “TakeMe2Space is on a mission to democratise space for all.
