"This agreement is a critical step in securing the high-level engineering talent required to support Sierra Space as we build the next generation of space transportation systems and in-space infrastructures and destinations for low-Earth orbit (LEO) commercialization," said Tom Vice, CEO, Sierra Space. "Our collaboration with Belcan further enhances Sierra Space's ability to build the next platform for business in the unique environment afforded by space where new technological breakthroughs that will directly enhance our life on earth will be born."

"We look forward to growing and strengthening our first-rate support of Sierra Space," said Lance Kwasniewski, CEO of Belcan. "This strong partnership draws upon Belcan's broad and deep engineering expertise, full lifecycle capabilities, and robust space experience, and expands our relationship with Sierra Space as their trusted engineering services partner."

"Belcan is excited to create tremendous value for Sierra Space as they develop the foundational infrastructure to support the growing LEO ecosystem," said Keith Jones, Senior Vice President, Defense & Space at Belcan. "We are proud to serve as Sierra Space's engineering service provider of choice and we are delighted to enter into this partnership as a demonstration of our commitment."

Sierra Space aims to build the future of space transportation, commercial space destinations and infrastructure, and enabling technologies that will help to build a vibrant, growing commercial space economy. As the LEO economy reaches a critical inflection point – driven by the convergence of the increasing commercialization of space, renewed public interest, and defense considerations – Sierra Space is developing foundational infrastructure to support this growing ecosystem. By opening up affordable access to space, Sierra Space hopes to enable existing businesses, entrepreneurs, researchers, and governments to create exciting breakthroughs that can empower humanity to begin new civilizations in space and benefit life on Earth.
