With more than $1 billion assets under management, Seven Grand’s investment adds to a broadening base of institutional capital backing Starlab and underscores investor conviction that commercial space infrastructure has reached a new stage of maturity. The investment reinforces confidence not only in Starlab’s technical progress, but in its commercial readiness, global partnerships and long-term demand from government, research and private-sector customers.
“This investment highlights a broader shift in the space economy,” said Marshall Smith, CEO, Starlab. “Capital is flowing toward platforms that demonstrate operational credibility and durable economics. Starlab is not an experimental concept, but a commercially grounded platform built for long-term operation.”
“Starlab is being built to be commercially viable from Day One,” said Chris Fahy, founder and chief investment officer, Seven Grand. “Our investment recognizes that commercial infrastructure in the post-ISS era is not speculative, but tangible, bankable and poised for growth.
