Telespazio, a privately owned company headquartered in Italy, was founded in 1961 and employs approximately 940 individuals. The company operates in Defense and Space Manufacturing, specializing as a designer and developer of satellite systems and downstream applications. Its activities range from the development of space systems to the management of launch services and in-orbit satellite control, encompassing Earth observation services, integrated communication, satellite navigation and localization, and scientific programs.
On July 9, 2026, Telespazio successfully completed an important milestone for the upgrade of ASI's Sardinia Deep Space Antenna (SDSA), a facility designed to ensure communications between a future Italian lunar base and Earth under the EMM national program. Previously, on June 30, 2026, the third satellite in the COSMO-SkyMed Second Generation radar constellation launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base on a SpaceX Falcon 9 for the Italian Space Agency and the Italian Ministry of Defense, entering its service ramp-up and extending Italy's dual-use Earth observation capability. Earlier, on June 23, 2026, Telespazio and CEiiA joined forces in the Iberian space sector, formalized by an agreement signed at Telespazio's Fucino Space Centre during a visit by a Portuguese delegation, including Ambassador Carlos Pereira Marques and Portuguese Space Agency President Ricardo Conde.
