Kinéis to increase its fleet to 25 nanosatellites

Ségolène Pluchet, Head of Business Development Latam at Kinéis, mentioned that the company has developed a model based on the use of nanosatellites to provide global connectivity. With a current fleet of 10 nanosatellites in orbit, the company plans to reach 25 satellites by May 2025.

These satellites serve three main functions: detecting issues, monitoring regions affected by natural disasters such as fires and floods, and providing precise geolocation of assets.

Kinéis operates with a 100% B2B focus and works with partners and distributors to design solutions tailored to each client’s specific needs, which has enabled the company to introduce new applications for its satellites.
