Google-backed spacetech startup Pixxel raises $24 Mn more in Series B

Pixxel, a space-tech startup backed by Google, has raised $24 million in additional funding as part of its Series B round. The funds will be used to accelerate the development of its satellite imaging technology, which provides high-resolution images of Earth to clients in industries such as agriculture, climate monitoring, and defense. Pixxel aims to enhance its constellation of satellites to provide more frequent and detailed imagery. The company has already launched a satellite, and the new funding will help scale its operations, expand its team, and improve its technology infrastructure. The Series B extension reflects growing investor confidence in the space-tech sector and Pixxel’s potential to revolutionize Earth observation services globally.
