Ubitium raised a €14 million seed round, led by Ibex Investors, to build drone-focused onboard intelligence on a unified chip architecture. The company’s seed funding totals €18 million since launching in 2024, with evaluation units for its next-generation UB410 planned for 2027. Ubitium will shift from its UB108 demonstration silicon to developing UB410 evaluation hardware and pursuing onboard sensing and AI workloads at the physical edge.
France-based companies are deploying agentic computing across space, finance, public services, and research using NVIDIA technology and models. Altair-1 launched this month as the first satellite in a $1 billion, 50-satellite constellation with on-board autonomous capabilities. The rollout expands from infrastructure and open model production into operational systems like edge satellite AI, sovereign workplace tooling for public agencies, and agent-building platforms for employees.
