We have a working phased array! Successfully supported nominal operations for @planet. We designed and built this antenna in 4 months. From the first time the antenna came off the truck, it was conducting testing with live satellites in less than 6 hours.
Northwood just achieved some major technical validation: our phased array ground station achieved bidirectional communications links over the full duration of satellite passes with Planet Labs — this baby works!! How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. At Northwood we’re…
Northwood announces $30M Series A Led by Alpine Space Ventures and @a16z with @CapitalAlso, @foundersfund, and @stepstonegroup and participation from @BoxGroup, @humbavc, @balerionspace, @hberkman, @LongJourneyVC, Aabid Razvi, @evanloomis, and @adrianaoun. We’re building a…

Another one – Northwood has raised a $30M Series A, led by Alpine Space Ventures and @a16z, with Also Capital, Founders Fund, and Stepstone joining as major investors to build the ground network for the industrialized space economy. We will use this funding to expand into a…
A few days late on this, but congrats to the 5 @CapitalAlso companies on @SVDG_official ’s NatSec100! I’m not a designer, but we made the fun graphic below to celebrate. Congrats @anysignalinc @K2SpaceCo @NorthwoodSpace @RadiantNuclear and @VardaSpace! No pressure, but I…
Thanks @rmpodnar and @Via_Satellite ! satellitetoday.com/technology/202…
This new generation of space requires capacity at scale for dynamic missions. That's why we: - built the most powerful commercial multi-orbit phased array in 9 months (LEO, MEO, GEO) - assembled in 5 days - will be deploying and operational for customers on multiple continents…
We have successfully demonstrated that our Portal system can deliver 1kW of transmit power and sub-picowatt receive, supporting LEO, MEO and GEO. With arrayed configurations of this module, Northwood has built the highest power commercial communications phased array.…
Thanks for your attention on our story @SciGuySpace
I went in depth here on Bridgit Mendler and Northwood Space, one of the most intriguing stories in the space industry today. arstechnica.com/space/2025/06/…
.@bridgitmendler's space startup @northwoodspace closes a $30M funding round with Andreessen and Founders Fund as it aims to reshape earth to space communication. Mendler talks capital intensity with @CarolineHydeTV and @EdLudlow on "Bloomberg Technology" bloom.bg/42xmCgs
Great speaking with @EdLudlow and @CarolineHydeTV this morning about what we're cookin at @NorthwoodSpace bloomberg.com/news/videos/20…
Great to be at #MWC24 to see friends like @GeoffreyStarks Can’t wait to tell him about the big developments by @NorthwoodSpace in revolutionizing Earth to space comms.
A huge congrats to @bridgitmendler and the entire @NorthwoodSpace team on this milestone! Northwood’s phased array ground station Portal successfully connected with Planet’s satellites. This team builds at such an impressive pace, and they ship (and they’re hiring)!
Northwood just achieved some major technical validation: our phased array ground station achieved bidirectional communications links over the full duration of satellite passes with Planet Labs — this baby works!! How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. At Northwood we’re…
It's crazy to think that it's been 1 yr minus 1 day as a co-founder here at @NorthwoodSpace. In that year we've raised from amazing investors, built a team I'm lucky to work with every day, and on top of that built a phased array antenna faster than some parabolics can get fixed
