Epic Aerospace

Epic Aerospace builds Orbit Transfer Vehicles - small chemical space tugs that pick up satellites from crowded rideshare drop-offs and ferry them to their actual working orbits, from LEO to GEO and beyond. Founded in 2018 by Ignacio Belieres Montero, the company runs its engineering and manufacturing out of Argentina with a U.S. headquarters, and put its first GEO-class vehicle, CHIMERA GEO 1, into space aboard SpaceX in early 2025.

Wingz

Wingz is a healthcare-focused rideshare platform built specifically for Non-Emergency Medical Transportation (NEMT). It connects credentialed, background-checked drivers with patients - often elderly, disabled, or low-income riders - who need reliable, scheduled rides to and from medical appointments. Originally launched in 2011 as Tickengo (the first company in the world to win a ride-sharing license, ahead of Uber and Lyft), Wingz pivoted to specialize in medical transport: HIPAA-trained drivers, transparent contracted pricing with no surge, recurring 'standing order' trips, and curb-to-curb, door-to-door, and hand-to-hand service levels. The company partners with NEMT brokers, Medicaid/Medicare payors, and health plans, and has delivered over one million rides across multiple U.S. states.

Loft Orbital

Loft Orbital is a San Francisco-based space infrastructure company that flies customer payloads on standardized satellites - selling space access the way AWS sells compute. Customers skip the spacecraft-building part and ship hardware, software, or on-demand data tasks to orbit on Loft's YAM satellites.
