ABOUT US
Marlan Space is a visionary space venture building the UAE’s commercial space ecosystem through partnerships with startups and primes. We are backed by the Royal Group of Abu Dhabi.
Through its partnerships, Marlan Space’s platform will develop end-to-end satellite solutions, develop next-generation launch capabilities and deliver in-space services globally.
OUR MISSION
Helping to ensure sovereign capabiltiy
Resilient sovereign space infrastructure is vital for ensuring the continuity of information and services, even in the face of challenges like system failures or external threats. Our strategic mission is to maximally implement this in the UAE.
OUR VISION
We are building the commercial space ecosystem in the UAE
Marlan Space is a visionary space venture integrating the space value chain in the UAE through partnerships and joint ventures with startups and established companies.
Through its partnerships, Marlan Space aims to deliver space solutions globally from its base in Abu Dhabi. We are backed by the Royal Group of Abu Dhabi.
SATELLITES
We are revolutionizing satellite integration through Orbitworks, the Middle East’s first commercial satellite integrator based in Abu Dhabi. A joint venture between Loft Orbital (US/France) and Marlan Space (UAE), Orbitworks leverages Loft’s 7+ years of space heritage to efficiently deliver remote sensing satellites to orbit.
With a 5,000 sqm facility capable of producing up to 50 satellites annually, each up to 500 kg, we are setting a new benchmark for satellite manufacturing at a commercial scale
Areas of Focus
LAUNCH
To bridge the gap in regional launch capabilities, we are working to establish infrastructure for rocket manufacturing and testing in the UAE, while exploring opportunities to develop launch sites in the region and beyond.
This initiative aims to provide reliable and accessible launch services, strengthening sovereign space capabilities by supporting regional missions closer to home, while also meeting international needs and accelerating mission timelines.
SPACE BASED SERVICES
We are committed to building and advancing space-based services that support a wide array of commercial and scientific applications, including in-space manufacturing, microgravity research, and enabling the development of private space stations.
By harnessing the transformative potential of space technologies, we aim to address global challenges, drive innovation, and unlock new opportunities
SATELLITES
Together with Loft Orbital, we founded Orbitworks, an Abu Dhabi-based satellite integrator, and the Middle East’s first commercial space builder. Orbitworks builds on Loft’s extensive space heritage to efficiently deliver any payload to orbit.
