CORE BUSINESS
Since 2001, EmTroniX has been at the heart of Europe’s most ambitious technological frontiers. It started with a simple goal: to create top-quality electronics that help industries grow. Over time, we found our true calling in space. Today, EmTroniX is a global leader in spacecraft electronics. We help space missions communicate better and reach further. Our motto, “Redefining Space Communication,” shows our commitment to making space connections easier, faster, more secure, smarter and more reliable. As we look ahead, our story is just beginning. EmTroniX will keep creating new products and solutions, making space more accessible and better connected for everyone
