This week your co-hosts Angela & Shri are joined by Andrew Vild, Business Development APAC from Kuva Space.

Kuva space is building the next generation of extensive, small and resource efficient Hyperspectral CubeSats. They have a goal to build 100 extensive constellation of hyperspectral satellites by 2030.

Why? To enable access to Green Data® insights (hyperspectral space-borne data insights) multiple times a day to improve life on earth. Typical satellites are hundreds of kilos and cost around 30 million. Kuva space aims to build brick like CubeSat cutting the costs down to 500 k.   

Hop on to this week's pod and learn all about:  

- Kuva Space’s vision and value proposition, competitors and application for impact on earth.

- Andrew’s Journey as a founder at PEV, the lessons he learnt and how he manages to juggle two jobs, studying and being open to networking and other career development opportunities. 

- Andrew trip to Richard Branson’s Island, an opportunity that he came across at a Climate Salad Pitch Night. (The same event Shri, our podcast lead, met Andrew)
