Space Rising is a market-building operator for the space economy.

The commercial space economy crossed $613 billion, but the organizations shaping its future remain fragmented across regions, sectors, and disconnected platforms.

We deploy ready-to-run systems for priority-setting, strategy, workforce, and visibility, built to be shared and scaled across regions.

A NEW WAY TO SPACE.

The future belongs to those willing to build it. 

A new way to space is the belief that the future is built through connection. Every era is defined by a different frontier. Ours extends beyond the atmosphere, where science, technology, industry, governance, education, and human imagination converge into a single endeavor. 

Space is a shared pursuit. 

Each conversation, partnership, experiment, investment, and act of curiosity adds another thread to a fabric that spans continents and generations. Progress emerges from the exchange of ideas as much as from the advancement of technology.

Our greatest achievements arise when knowledge, purpose, and imagination move together.

Co-Founders Tim and Taryn Struck

Why we built this.

tim & Taryn struck - founders of space rising

For nearly a decade, I explored one question through my work at Arizona State University’s Interplanetary Initiative: How do we build humanity’s future in space?

Both founders come from eastern Montana homestead families who arrived in 1909 and stayed. Space Rising is built the same way: go somewhere hard, organize it, stay.
