Founder Aron Lentsch established Orbspace in Tsukuba City after receiving the “Ibaraki Prefecture’s first” start-up visa under the start-up visa program, which supports foreign entrepreneurs. Ibaraki Prefecture and Tsukuba City already have excellent industrial infrastructure, research and education, and financial systems. We hope to continue to receive a variety of support, including opportunities such as this one, to help us realize a new industry of space transportation and hypersonic systems, to promote regional development, and to create an environment where other foreign entrepreneurs can follow suit. We hope to contribute to the realization of a new industry of space transportation and hypersonic systems, regional development, and the creation of an environment in which other foreign entrepreneurs can follow.
