Top 100+ Key Players in Robotics & intelligent systems in the Greater Zürich Area.
Sirin Orbital Systems AG is proud for this recognition, thanks to our innovative WPT* solutions for drones, leveraging their time-of-flight restrictions, and our vision-based autonomous concepts for robotic systems—under development initially for space applications, but with great terrestrial market potentials.
End-to-End Control for Handling Operations in Orbit (ECHO2) is a collaborative research project between the Space Robotics Lab (University of Málaga), the European Space Agency (ESA), and Sirin Orbital Systems AG. The project explores a markerless, vision-driven pipeline that enables orbital robotic systems to autonomously inspect, diagnose, and repair large space structures (LSS) without relying on visual markers, standardised interfaces, or continuous human intervention.
As space infrastructure expands, autonomous solutions are essential for reducing reliance on risky and costly astronaut extravehicular activities. With ECHO2, we address this challenge by developing a flexible, perception-aware robotic inspection system capable of operating reliably in complex orbital environments.
A use-case of this technology aims at autonomous deployment, inspection and maintenance of large-scale in-orbit infrastructures such as extended solar panels and heat dissipaters / radiators of In-Orbit Data Centres—such as those under development by Starcloud – The Future of AI among others.
Sirin Orbital Systems AG is featured on Forbes, along with ESA and NASA. In an article written by Forbes Councils Member, Shelli Brunswick, three independent forces powering the future of innovation and transforming bold ideas into lasting impact are described as: entrepreneurial thinking, interdisciplinary innovation and collaborative momentum.
… by applying entrepreneurial thinking to business strategy, regulatory navigation and systems engineering, SIRIN is turning a visionary concept into a viable solution.

Sirin Orbital Systems AG featured among other top candidates in the Scale-Up category, EY Entrepreneur Of The Year™ 2025 Switzerland
It is an honour to be featured in the Global Trends Magazine, GTM, highlighting Sirin Orbital Systems AG‘s core essence in business “to innovate mindfully, despite foreseen challenges“!
The columnist, Ms. Shelli Brunswick (CEO at SB Global LLC), in her launch lesson of June 2025 mentions Sirin Orbital Systems AG as an example of those enterprises that is “Building Bold Ideas into Business Foundations“.
Sirin Orbital Systems AG is proudly sponsoring the European Space Camp (ESC) to be held in Andøya Space in Northern Norway, 3-10 August 2025. ESC gives the opportunity to 25 brightest young people—aged 17-20—from all over Europe to spend six days running different aspects of a real rocket campaign including the launch itself. Scattered throughout the week are a number of lectures from some of Europe’s top scientists and engineers on topics varying from rocket physics to the northern lights.
ESC’s main goal is to promote science and technology as a career and education. To achieve this, the camp focuses on three things: lectures, practical work, and social activities. The camp is filled with challenges and world-class lectures. The participants get to build their own sounding rocket and take on all the challenges of a rocket campaign. They get expert guidance from rocket scientists and professors through group work and listen to lectures from some of Europe’s top scientists.
ESC is the largest camp of this type in Europe, and is organized on a complete non-profit basis. ESC therefore relies on the support of various sponsor organisations and collaborating partners. Sirin Orbital Systems AG is delighted to be invited to support the ESC 2025 along with other distinguished supporters including Norwegian Space Agency (NOSA), Andøya Space, Kongsberg Defence Systems,Gard, Nammo, KSAT (Kongsberg Satellite Systems), University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), University of Stavanger (UiS), Andøya Municipality, SpareBank Nord-Norge.
Hosted by the Liechtenstein Space Department / Office for Communications at the PRINCIPALITY OF LIECHTENSTEIN, the Leadership Challenge sessions attempted to set up the stage for revolutionary solutions to connect Space and Earth. In the second session focused on innovative technologies and their transformative potential for Earth and beyond, Sirin Orbital Systems AG presented its works on Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) and described the enormous potential of WPT technology to revolutionize the Energy sectors.
The World System Forum was founded in 2020 by Mr. Rudolf Hilti, the visionary and founder of The System Change Foundation. The Foundation’s annual event gathers some of the most respected and influential minds from across the globe to collaborate on the potential for future ways of living and to catalyse system change.
“Bridging Space-tech and Clean-tech” was the thematic of speech presented by Sirin Orbital Systems AG at the luncheon held at Shangri-La Tokyo on 3 December 2024.
The focus of this speech was on innovative clean-tech solutions inspired and empowered by space-tech, with a focus on wireless power transfer (WPT) as a resilient energy transfer method, along with technological challenges and commercial opportunities that such technologies are creating for businesses, clean-tech and terrestrial energy sectors.
The speech delivered by Sirin Orbital Systems AG at the SCCIJ’s December 2024 luncheon was well received by the 40 attendees and it got a 4.95/5 score from them, making it one of the top 3 highest-rated speeches in nearly 6 years of luncheons held in the chamber.
In line with series of Swiss-Japan workshops on the thematic “Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) and Space-based Solar Power (SBSP)“, the 3rd “Japan-Switzerland SBSP/WPT Workshop” was held at the Kyoto University Tokyo Office, Tokyo, Japan, on the 29th of November 2024. This is a joint workshop co-organized by Research Institute for Sustainable Humanosphere (RISH) at Kyoto University and Sirin Orbital Systems AG.
This year’s workshop had a specific emphasize on the WPT related businesses in Japan and Switzerland / Europe, with speakers from Sirin Orbital Systems AG, Panasonic, SoftBank, Aeterlink, Tokyo Metropolitan University focusing their speeches on the “WPT for Powering IoT and Computer Peripheral Devices, WPT for B5G/6G era, WPT for Air-Mobility and Drones”.
On the R&D side, the workshop provided an insightful overview on recent achievements of Japan Space Systems in cooperation with JAXA/ISAS, and their ongoing world-class long-distance WPT demonstration from an airplane to a ground-receiving system examining 5-7km distance wireless power transmission in Nagano Prefecture, Kirigamine Glider Filed. JAXA/ISAS also presented latest status of the “On-orbit experiment of HIgh-precision beam control using small SAtellite for MicrowAve power transmission (OHISAMA)” mission.
This year’s workshop had a special guest speaker from the United Kingdom, Space Solar, who provided insightful updates on the UK tailwinds and headwinds related to Space-Based Solar Power (SBSP), with the priority of “Delivering Energy Security and Powering a Net Zero Future”.
In an attempt to integrate real-world space projects into ETH Space‘s curriculum in the form of a one-semester feasibility study of a mission design, providing students with practical experience from concept to completion, Sirin Orbital Systems AG‘s proposal related to a novel mission design and payload analysis for Very Low Earth Orbit (VLEO), featuring SIRIN’s innovative air-breathing propulsion system, was among one of 5 [out of 35] proposals selected by ETH Space for Autumn Semester 2024/2025.
The project Low ORbit Demonstrator (LORD) was carried out by a group of 6 talented students at ETH Zürich’s Master’s in Space Systems. All aspects of the mission were covered including Mission Requirements, Mission Design, Payload Selection and Justification, Mission Operations and Ground Segment, Project Plan and Life Cycle Assessment, and Future VLEO Applications and Market Analysis. The LORD mission was concluded to be suitable for an ESA F-Class Mission.
