Irish start-up Setanta plans €3m raise for its AI satellite technology

Irish start-up Setanta Space Systems is seeking to raise €3 million to build out its AI-powered satellite computing technology. The company, headquartered in University College Dublin’s (UCD) start-up hub NovaUCD, was founded in 2025 by a team of engineers with backgrounds in European Space Agency (ESA) missions. Setanta's core platform, Danu, is an onboard computer that allows mission designers to tailor processing power, AI acceleration, and radiation tolerance depending on need, enabling satellites to respond immediately in increasingly complex orbital environments.

The company recently announced its acceptance into the ESA BIC Ireland initiative, a two-year business incubation programme which supports innovative Irish start-ups that have space-related applications.
