Pale Blue has been selected as one of the nine finalists in the Startup Space, a pitch contest held during the SATELLITE 2023. This is one of the biggest satellite conferences in the U.S. that attracts 5,000 people every year.

The early-stage space startups chosen will have the chance to rapid-fire pitch their businesses with just minutes to make an impact and tell their story. Judges will score the presentations based on a standardized set of various categories. The contestant with the highest overall score will be named the contest winner and receive the grand prize – private pitch meetings with today’s most active space investors. Produced in partnership with Jack Industries, the competition has helped cultivate space companies such as Astroscale, LeoLabs, Ursa, Orbit Fab, and dozens more.

 

Pale Blue will have 5 minutes to pitch and 5 minutes for Q&A between 11:00 am and 12:00 pm on March 14. The results will be announced during the awards luncheon on March 15th at 12:00 pm. The list of companies participating in the Startup Space can be found on the official website at https://www.satshow.com/startup-space/
