Galaxia Closes Funding Round to Support Accelerated Growth
Galaxia, building the infrastructure layer for orbital compute, led by Arad Gharagozli and the team, has announced the successful close of its oversubscribed funding round, marking a major milestone in the company’s growth and reinforcing strong investor confidence in its vision for intelligent, sovereign space infrastructure. The 4.5 million CAD round was co-led by Amiral Ventures (QC) and Invest Nova Scotia (NS).
The funding will support Galaxia’s next phase of growth, accelerating the deployment of advanced satellite systems, hybrid space networking, and sovereign space capabilities. The company aims to scale its technology stack and deliver mission-ready systems for commercial and government customers.
“This is a clear signal of alignment between our vision and market demand,” said Arad Gharagozli, Chief Executive Officer of Galaxia. “We are building the foundation for a new class of space systems which deliver intelligence, not just data. This funding enables us to scale that capability, strengthen sovereign capacity, and accelerate the transition to real-time, software-defined operations in orbit.”
The raise comes amid growing demand for resilient, responsive and autonomous space infrastructure, particularly across defence, national security and commercial markets. As satellites evolve from passive data collectors into intelligent, dynamic platforms, Galaxia is developing technology to support that transition.
Its proprietary onboard compute platform combines networked communications and mission software in a unified architecture, enabling real-time data processing and insights directly in orbit. Built on Canadian intellectual property, the platform is designed to support the development of secure and sovereign space capabilities for modern missions.
“Nova Scotia companies are building solutions the world increasingly needs, and Galaxia is a wonderful example,” said Deputy Minister of the Department of Growth and Development, and CEO of Invest Nova Scotia, Chris Morrissey. “Invest Nova Scotia is proud to support Galaxia as it continues to advance space systems for defence and commercial applications.”
“Amiral is proud to co-lead this investment alongside Invest Nova Scotia. Galaxia is truly a trailblazer in sovereign space infrastructure and has demonstrated its leadership in making real-time Earth observation a reality," said Frederic Bastien, Managing Partner at Amiral Ventures. "This investment in Canadian innovation fits squarely within our resilience thesis."
With a growing portfolio of technologies and active programs, Galaxia is building toward intelligent, responsive space infrastructure designed to enable faster decision-making and greater strategic independence.
