About

OroraTech is a space technology company providing the leading global wildfire management platform, delivering early wildfire detection, monitoring, and prediction through a network of thermal infrared satellites and ground-based sensors. The platform fuses data from 35+ satellite and ground sources with proprietary AI-driven detection algorithms to deliver the earliest detection of hotspots and continuous monitoring of areas at risk. OroraTech operates 14 of its own satellites in Low Earth Orbit equipped with thermal infrared cameras that detect heat instead of visible light, enabling fire detection day, night, and through smoke. The product portfolio includes Wildfire Solution (all-in-one detection and monitoring), Fire Spread (near-real-time wildfire movement predictions), Burnt Area (satellite-based damage assessment and burn severity analysis), Land Surface Temperature (thermal data for climate resilience), and Short-Term Fire Hazard (predictive risk forecasting). The platform serves civil protection agencies, infrastructure and energy companies, forestry organizations, carbon project developers, and climate initiatives. OroraTech has 800+ users in 25 countries, 170+ employees across 5 continents, and monitors 500 million hectares. Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Germany, the company has raised approximately $63.2 million in Series B funding. Investors include EIC Fund, BNP Paribas Asset Management, Bayern Kapital, ESA, Korys, ECBF, Rabo Investments, and APEX Ventures.
