MinoSpace

MinoSpace (时代星通科技) is a Chinese commercial microsatellite manufacturer founded in 2017 and headquartered in Beijing, providing standardized satellite platforms, subsystem components, and complete satellite system solutions for Earth observation, Internet of Things, communications, and technology demonstration missions — serving China's rapidly expanding commercial satellite constellation market.

The company's product portfolio centers on standardized microsatellite bus platforms in the 50-200 kg mass class, designed for rapid integration and volume production to support constellation deployment schedules. MinoSpace offers complete satellite bus hardware including structure, power systems, attitude determination and control systems (ADCS), onboard computers, and thermal management — enabling commercial operators to procure complete satellite platforms and integrate their mission payloads without requiring extensive in-house satellite engineering capabilities, reducing time-to-orbit for constellation operators.

MinoSpace participates in China's government-supported commercial space manufacturing ecosystem, competing with domestic satellite manufacturers including Chang Guang Satellite Technology (Jilin-1 constellation operator and manufacturer), Spacety China (天仪研究院), and Galaxy Space (银河航天) for commercial satellite manufacturing contracts. China's commercial satellite market has grown rapidly since 2015 policy changes opened private capital investment to the sector, with domestic IoT constellation, Earth observation, and broadband satellite operators providing strong demand for cost-competitive satellite platforms manufactured at scale.

The company's Beijing location provides access to China's primary aerospace engineering talent pool and national space industrial supply chain for space-qualified components and subsystems.
