SEOPS, Maverick Space, and ISISPACE Form Partnership for GTO Mission

Leading launch service providers join forces to combine expertise, infrastructure and capacity to serve GTO customers and a wider range of client missions

HOUSTON, TX, UNITED STATES, December 19, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — SEOPS, a leading provider of responsive launch and space mission services, announced today it is partnering with Maverick Space Systems of San Luis Obispo, Calif, and Innovative Solutions In Space (ISISPACE) based in Delft, The Netherlands. While continuing to operate independently, the three launch service providers will leverage their long-term relationships and unique areas of expertise to collectively make it easier for more organizations to secure launch capacity to Geostationary Transfer Orbits (GTO).

“We’ve had the privilege of working alongside each other for years on many different launch campaigns and have discovered we all share a mission-first culture and a ‘roll-up-your-sleeves’ work ethic,” said Chad Brinkley, CEO of SEOPS. “Working more closely together was a natural step forward, as it enables us to deliver exceptional solutions to a broader range of clients in a rapidly growing space market.”

Each of the launch services experts brings unique strengths: Maverick Space offers unparalleled expertise in full dispenser stack hardware and separation systems for small launch to EELV class launch vehicles, and launch integration services for commercial and U.S. Government missions. ISISPACE brings nearly two decades of experience supporting a truly global customer base with its small satellite solutions, launch equipment and rideshare services, and SEOPS delivers innovative capacity programs, including recently signing a contract with SpaceX for a Falcon 9 rideshare mission destined for a geostationary transfer orbit in late 2028, along with an extensive track record managing complex missions.

“We’re excited to now combine these strengths and offer the growing smallsat market a smarter, more efficient way to access GTO,” said Roland Coelho, CEO of Maverick Space. “By forming this partnership, our collective team is bringing together the first-ever dedicated rideshare mission to GTO for our commercial, U.S. Government, and international customers. While existing launch opportunities effectively serve the LEO market, the GTO market remains underserved. We are thrilled to collaborate with SEOPS on their 2028 GTO rideshare mission to help unlock the GTO market.”

“As a pioneer in commercial small satellite launch integration for nearly two decades, we have seen the market develop to the interesting mix of launch supply and launch needs we see today,” said Abe Bonnema, Director Marketing and Sales, and Co-Founder of ISISPACE. “As we need to adapt to market needs continuously, working with our like-minded partners to jointly offer GTO rideshare services to our international customers is a strategic step in that process.”
