Tycho Space Joins ESA BIC Norway and Establishes Office at Startuplab
Strengthening our position in the European space ecosystem
We're excited to announce that Tycho Space has been accepted into ESA BIC Norway, marking a significant milestone in our journey to simplify space computing. As part of this program, we've established our new office at Startuplab, bringing us closer to Norway's thriving space community.
A Strategic Partnership
ESA BIC (Business Incubation Centre) Norway provides startups with access to ESA's extensive network, technical expertise, and business support. This partnership aligns perfectly with our mission to make edge computing accessible for satellite developers and researchers across Europe.
"Being part of ESA BIC Norway validates our approach to space computing and opens new opportunities for collaboration," says Martin Grande, CEO of Tycho Space.

New Home at Startuplab
Our move to Startuplab positions us at the heart of Norway's space innovation ecosystem. The facility provides access to advanced lab facilities, the dynamic startup environment, and an extensive network of space companies and researchers. Through regular events and collaboration opportunities, we're now directly connected to the pulse of Norwegian space innovation.
With offices now at both Startuplab in Oslo and FAKTRY in Trondheim, this strategic dual-location setup enables closer partnerships with space companies across Norway and provides the infrastructure needed to accelerate TychoBoB development and testing.
