Helsinki-based satellite builder ReOrbit has linked with Google in a partnership to build a ‘Space Cloud’ which is designed to transport data on orbit but in a highly-secure system. ReOrbit will use Google’s Cloud expertise in data management to build on the growing demand for orbital computing but in a highly secure environment.

“Space Cloud aims to become a network of multi-purpose satellites capable of moving and processing data securely in space. This transformative multi-year space initiative, developed in collaboration with Google Cloud, targets to pioneer a distributed, high-performance space-based data centre network,” stated ReOrbit.

“Space Cloud reflects a long-standing vision of ReOrbit, now made possible by the convergence of technological maturity and market pull,” commented founder and CEO Sethu Saveda Suvanam.

ReOrbit, in October 2025, secured a $45 million (€37.9m) cash injection in Series A funding in order to expand its satellite manufacturing. Leading the financing round was Springvest, a VC specialising in start-ups. Other investors included Varma, Elo, Icebreaker VC, Expansion VC, 10x Founders, and Inventure VC.

“By combining ReOrbit’s software-enabled satellite architecture with Google’s world-class expertise in AI and cloud orchestration, the project aims to create an infrastructure to address the critical demand for European and NATO data sovereignty. Space Cloud is designed to ensure that sensitive intelligence remains secure, actionable, and under sovereign control in an increasingly complex geopolitical landscape,” the company added.

“We are pleased to collaborate with ReOrbit on the ‘Space Cloud’ project, which explores an interesting approach to orbital data processing,” said Markus Hongisto, Google Cloud Country Manager, Finland. “This initiative allows us to share our technical expertise in cloud orchestration and AI to support ReOrbit as they build new ways to manage data securely.”
