What they do

Inside UP42

UP42 aggregates archive and tasking imagery from multiple constellations (including Sentinel, Pléiades and partner sources) and exposes ordering, access and processing through a single API and console.

It runs processing blocks next to the data, so analysis-ready outputs can be produced without each customer rebuilding an EO pipeline.

After the December 2024 announcement, Neo Space Group (a Saudi PIF company) completed the acquisition from Airbus Defence and Space on 10 July 2025, making UP42 part of NSG.
