About

Star Catcher Industries is a Jacksonville, FL-based space infrastructure company founded in 2024 that is building what it describes as the first orbital power grid — a constellation of satellites that harvest solar energy and beam it via optical lasers to other spacecraft to overcome the power shortages that constrain in-orbit operations 123. The $65M Series A announced May 12, 2026 was led by B Capital and co-led by Shield Capital and Cerberus Ventures, with participation from GreatPoint Ventures, Helena, Oceans Ventures, and MVP Ventures; total capital raised stands at $88M 123. As part of the round, retired Space Force chief Gen. John “Jay” Raymond (Cerberus), Jeff Johnson (Global Head of Energy, B Capital), and David Rothzeid (Principal, Shield Capital) joined Star Catcher’s board 12. The company plans its first in-orbit power-beaming demonstration mission later in 2026 1.
