HyImpulse secures €50M+ to scale suborbital and orbital launch services

German SpaceTech startup HyImpulse has secured over €50 million in its Series A Extension round, bringing its total equity and public funding to more than €125 million. The co-led financing round, which includes participation from new investors such as North Ventures, BW-Capital, Bayern Kapital, and the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), reflects investors' confidence in the company's team, technology, and commercial vision.

HyImpulse, founded in 2018 as a spin-off from the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), specializes in developing and providing suborbital and orbital launch capabilities based on its proprietary hybrid propulsion technology. This technology combines non-explosive paraffin fuel with liquid oxygen, offering a safe, cost-efficient, and scalable alternative to conventional kerosene-based systems.

The company's SR75 suborbital launcher, which completed its inaugural flight campaign in 2024, is set to launch from SaxaVord Spaceport in Scotland. With an order book exceeding €350 million across its suborbital and orbital programmes, HyImpulse aims to meet growing demand for independent launch capabilities across commercial, institutional, and defence markets in Europe.
