NMD is building the first industrial Assembly, Integration & Test (AIT) hub for nanosatellites in Douala, Cameroon. We're raising 1.32B FCFA (€2M) via a SAFE to move from proof of concept to industrialization.
NMD (Nanosatellite Missions Design) is building the first industrial Assembly, Integration & Test (AIT) hub for nanosatellites in Francophone Africa, based in Douala, Cameroon.
Satellite Assembly, Integration & Test (AIT) in Douala costs 40% less than elsewhere. NMD partners with CNDT, bringing them space and satellite technology expertise.
150M FCFA in cumulative revenue (2023-2025): a signed contract with Aerospacelab, work delivered for MTN Benin, MTN Cameroon, and IHS Cameroon as a subcontractor to Deloitte Cameroon (prime contractor on these engagements), and a letter of intent from SENSAT (Senegal), who have expressed interest in having their satellites assembled, integrated, and tested at our hub once it's built.
Dr. Ifriky Tadadjeu (CEO, 4 successful space missions) is backed by space engineering PhDs formerly of SANSA and the ZACUBE program. Technical capability on par with top global players, at a third to a quarter of the cost in Europe.
The window is real, but it isn't permanent. It takes 18 months from SAFE closing to a fully operational AIT hub: recruiting senior engineers, building the facility, getting ISO 7 certified, and landing first contracts. Every month the raise is delayed is a month added directly to when we can start delivering. Meanwhile, the funding and contract windows are already closing. The Africa-EU Space Partnership (€100M, ESA/AfSA) runs 2025-2028. Every quarter the raise is delayed cuts further into our ability to tap that funding before it ends. Of the 72 satellites planned by 20 African countries by 2030, 52% of contracts, roughly $1.35B, haven't been awarded yet, but they will be, progressively, through 2030. Investing now means NMD will be operational exactly when those decisions are being made. Investing in 12 or 18 months means arriving after most of those contracts already have a winner.
This round is structured as a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (SAFE) of 1,320,000,000 FCFA (€2M), with a valuation cap of 9.84B FCFA (€15M), which caps founder dilution at a maximum of 13.4%.
