–Bosco Lai, CEO and Co-Founder of Little Place Labs

Little Place Labs is a software company that specializes in providing near-real-time space analytics for both ground and space-based applications. Their approach using machine learning algorithms deployed directly on satellites eliminates the bottleneck of downlinking raw data from space, enabling rapid, precise, and cost-effective delivery of critical insights to end-users across commercial and national security sectors.

At the University of Oxford, co-founders Bosco Lai and Guarav Bajaj met a career juncture where their aim to create change aligned with a passion for space. Recognizing the inefficiencies of current data processing, they aspired to disrupt the status quo by bypassing the need for complete downlink. Little Place Labs has become a prominent player in the satellite edge computing domain and is a member of various leading space and defense communities.
