Swedish Space Corporation (SSC) has established SSC Space Italy, a new subsidiary targeted at the growing Italian space market. It is a significant milestone for the SSC Group, which strengthens the company’s presence in Europe and reinforces its reputation as a leader in the industry.

“We are thrilled to announce the establishment of SSC Space Italy. It’s a crucial step in the SSC Group global expansion strategy and demonstrates our commitment to global growth and innovation. Italy is an attractive destination for businesses, and we see tremendous potential for development in the region,” says Davide Starnone, Director General of SSC Space Italy.

The formation of SSC Italy marks another significant milestone for the SSC Group. The subsidiary will operate under the Engineering Services division, and provide a platform for the company to expand its offerings and reach new markets.

“For the last decade SSC has invested time and energy in strengthening our capacity globally. With the establishment of SSC Space Italy, we emphasize our role as a key player on one of Europe’s leading space markets, and leader in the industry as a whole,” says Stefan Gardefjord, CEO SSC.

SSC Space Italy will be under the management of Davide Starnone who takes the role as Director General of the new subsidiary.
