We believe that humanity must expand its reach into outer space to create a better life for all, unite people through the pursuit of knowledge and the joy of exploration, and ensure human existence in the universe.To achieve these ends, we have established Empire Space Labs - a space technology accelerator program headquartered in New York City. Successful commercial applications of technologies born in space will inspire more investment in space research from every sector. New York City is a planetary hub of innovation across every industry, and is home to a robust and diverse population of entrepreneurs, creatives, and domain experts of all kinds. Our accelerator will tap into this population and use it to grow a community of pioneers who will create the next wave of space technology companies.We provide expert mentorship, starting resources, partner introductions and strategic relationships, business model advice and business development. Empire Space Labs will prepare fledgling companies for the challenges of starting a business in the commercial space sector.We are here to take you to space.
