Mission

SharpNav LEO-PNT constellation

Sharpnav’s LEO PNT constellation is a next-generation satellite-based navigation system designed to overcome the limitations of traditional GNSS. Unlike GNSS satellites that orbit at medium altitudes (~20 000 km), Sharpnav’s satellites operate in low Earth orbit (LEO), enabling significantly stronger signal strength—up to 100 times higher. This architecture ensures high positioning accuracy even in challenging environments such as dense urban areas, polar regions, and under interference, where GNSS typically fails.

The system is engineered for resilience and security, addressing growing threats like jamming, spoofing, and natural interference. Sharpnav integrates encrypted signals and multi-signal redundancy to maintain operational integrity even under electronic warfare conditions. Its polar-orbiting design ensures full coverage in high-latitude regions, making it especially suitable for the Nordic and Arctic areas. The constellation is scalable, with regional enhancement layers for mission-critical applications, and is designed to augment existing GNSS systems during its early deployment phases.

Sharpnav’s phased deployment strategy begins with a Nordic-focused pilot of 4–6 satellites, expanding to 50 for regional coverage, and ultimately scaling to a global constellation of ~300 satellites. The system is compatible with traditional GNSS systems. This approach positions Sharpnav as a transformative force in the PNT landscape, with applications spanning defense, aviation, emergency response, and autonomous systems.

What's Happening at SharpNav

For Investors

Strategically Positioned As A Key Player

SharpNav is strategically positioned as a key player in the rapidly expanding global GNSS market, poised for exponential growth from €260 billion in 2023 to approximately €580 billion by 2033, the growth being driven by escalating demand for precise navigation services across practically all industries. Our technical approach and the ability to provide precise navigational services in all environments sets us apart, making it a prime investment opportunity for those looking to capitalize on the growth of this dynamic market.

Business-wise our solution combines the best of many approaches. The current GNSS environment offers much room for technical improvement for innovative players such as us, while mitigating the risk associated with technology development. On the other hand our LEO-signal component offers an early gateway to the LEO PNT market, that is expected to grow globally to over €40 billion.
