GITAI USA has launched its full operations in the U.S., as well as securing its first purchase order from a major local space company. The company has also published an introduction movie about its new U.S. office.
GITAI, founded in 2016 by Sho Nakanose, is a leading provider of space robots in Japan. The company’s expansion to the U.S. marks a significant step in its growth and brings its innovative space robots to a wider market.
“We are thrilled to fully launch our operations in the US and serve our customers in this market,” said Sho Nakanose, GITAI’s CEO. “We are proud to have secured our first purchase order from a major local space company, which is a testament to the quality and value of our products and services. We are confident that our unique approach to Agile development of space robots will be well received by the US space industry.”
GITAI will be headquartered in Los Angeles, California, and will initially focus on the commercial space station support. The company plans to hire 50+ new employees in the U.S. in 2023 to support its expansion.
