The Beyond Gravity gives you valuable insights into how a modern technology company operates. Understanding how a corporate thinks about innovation is essential for startups to succeed. During the collaboration, we had the opportunity to work with Beyond Gravity engineers, business experts and executives on several use cases

Past collaborations

We have worked with startups including Aucta, Earkick, Ethereal X, GATE Space, Modulos, Orion AM, RevoAI, Rimon, and Side Effects, on topics ranging from satellite propulsion and additive manufacturing to AI-powered engineering and 3D work instructions.

Aucta

Aucta is an award-winning startup that sustainably transforms CAD data into interactive 3D visualizations that can deliver significant results in sales, service and training. The USP lies in the simple handling, for which no programming knowledge is required.

Earkick

Earkick is a U.S.-Swiss start-up, that has developed AI technology that anonymously measures employee mental health, takes automated measurements and generates actionable suggestions based on real data.

Ethereal X

Ethereal X is an aerospace start-up form India. The talented young team aims to build the world's most powerful reusable medium shear load launch vehicle. This is expected to significantly reduce the cost of space transportation.

GATE Space

The Austrian company GATE Space develops the world's first satellite propulsion solutions capable of deep throttling. This enables highly efficient and redundant thruster configurations using differential thrust. As a global supplier of complementary satellite components, Beyond Gravity sees large potential in the collaboration.

Modulos

Modulos offers an enterprise AI platform which allows user to build trustworthy AI models. The data-centric AI approach of the platform reduced the workload for labeling and cleaning data, which is still very high today. Beyond Gravity is interested in collaboration in the area of product quality assessment and optimization.

Orion AM

Orion AM produces the most advanced 3D printer for industrial additive manufacturing with high performance polymers such as PEEK, PEI, PPSU and more. The unique technology can achieve injection molding-like strength in 3D-printed parts, which offers new possibilities in the production of aerospace parts.

RevoAI

RevoAI supports deeptech companies in engineering complex and safety critical products within scope, cost and time frame. This is achieved by enabling AI-powered and model-based engineering early in the development process. Beyond Gravity sees potential throughout the testing process of space products.

Rimon

Rimon has developed a white-label platform, where instructions of multiple use cases can be transferred into augmented reality (AR). Augmented reality solutions are used to execute defined technical processes faster and more precisely. Beyond Gravity sees potential in the space sector in general, where many processes must be clearly defined and executed step by step.

Side Effects

Side Effects creates 3D based work instructions, manuals, technical documentation, assembly instructions, spare parts catalogues and much more with an automatic digital 3D twin from customer's CAD data and their easy-to-use 3D editing system.
