§ Private Profile · Houston, TX, USA
Commercial space company developing and operating the first commercial space station and private astronaut missions.
Axiom Space has raised $842.0M across 5 funding rounds.
Key people at Axiom Space.
Axiom Space's primary mission is to build a thriving commercial space economy in low-Earth orbit by developing commercial human spaceflight services and the world's first commercial space station, Axiom Station.
Axiom Space offers comprehensive, end-to-end human spaceflight missions to the International Space Station, including astronaut training, mission planning, hardware development, life support, and on-orbit operations for private, professional, and research astronauts, as well as nations.
The Axiom Station will be the world's first commercial space station, designed to succeed the ISS. It will be a self-sustaining orbital platform for research, manufacturing, tourism, and space exploration system testing, with its first module expected to launch by 2027 and undock to operate independently by 2030.
Orbital Data Centers (ODCs) are scalable in-space cloud computing infrastructures being developed by Axiom Space. They will provide data storage, AI, ML, and cybersecurity services in orbit, aiming to enhance the resiliency and security of orbital networks and offer lower latency cloud capabilities.
Based in Houston, Texas, Axiom Space is an aerospace company that operates private astronaut missions to the International Space Station and develops commercial space infrastructure. The enterprise is currently constructing the world's first commercial space station, which will initially attach to the ISS before detaching as an independent destination. The organization has raised over $505 million in total funding, achieving a valuation exceeding $1 billion while growing its workforce to more than 800 employees. Axiom generates revenue through private astronaut ticket sales and government agreements, serving major clients like NASA while securing financial backing from lead investors such as Aljazira Capital, Boryung, and 4iG Group. The company also holds a $228 million contract to design next-generation lunar spacesuits for future exploration missions. Axiom Space was founded in 2016 by Michael Suffredini and Kam Ghaffarian.

Key people at Axiom Space.
Axiom Space offers unparalleled end-to-end human spaceflight missions to the International Space Station (ISS) for private astronauts, researchers, and national space programs. These missions encompass extensive training, mission planning, hardware development, and comprehensive on-orbit support, expanding global access to space for diverse purposes.
Envisioned as the successor to the ISS, Axiom Station will be the globe's inaugural commercial space station. This self-sustaining orbital platform will host government and private astronauts, tourists, and businesses for advanced research, manufacturing, and exploration system testing. Its modular design includes pressurized habitats, research facilities, and power modules, with the first components expected to dock with the ISS by 2027 before becoming an independent orbital laboratory in 2030.
Facilitating cutting-edge innovation, Axiom Space provides full-service solutions for in-space research and manufacturing on the ISS. Their support covers hardware development, payload integration, mission development, and business development, enabling industries and scientists to leverage the microgravity environment for breakthroughs in various fields.
In a groundbreaking move, Axiom Space is developing scalable Orbital Data Centers to revolutionize in-space computing. These ODCs will offer cloud computing, data storage, artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and robust cybersecurity capabilities directly in orbit. This infrastructure aims to enhance orbital network resiliency, reduce reliance on terrestrial systems, and provide lower latency data processing for satellite and spacecraft operations.
In collaboration with NASA, Axiom Space is at the forefront of developing advanced next-generation spacesuits and spacewalk systems. These innovative suits are designed for critical operations outside the ISS, future lunar surface missions under the Artemis program, and eventual human exploration of Mars, marking a significant leap in extravehicular activity capabilities.
Axiom Space has raised $842.0M across 5 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $350.0M Venture Round in February 2026 at a valuation of approximately $25.0M.
