In 2022, Declan Ganley founded Rivada Space Networks with a singular vision: to democratize space by building the world's first truly wholesale space network. Recognizing that existing satellite communications infrastructure was designed for yesterday's needs, Ganley and his team set out to create something fundamentally different - a network that would give enterprise and government customers complete control over their most critical data. Rivada Space Networks is building the Outernet, a revolutionary low-Earth orbit constellation of 600 interconnected satellites that creates a global, low-latency, point-to-point connectivity network. What makes this architecture unique is its gateway-less design using inter-satellite laser links, meaning data stays in space from origin to destination without touching the ground until it reaches its intended endpoint. This approach creates an ultra-secure network with pole-to-pole coverage, offering end-to-end latencies comparable to or better than terrestrial fiber. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Rivada Networks with headquarters in Munich and a secondary office in Berlin, Rivada Space Networks brings together an international team of space industry veterans who have spent their careers expanding the boundaries of what's possible in orbit, now united in pursuit of transforming global communications infrastructure for the most demanding enterprise and government customers.

Their mission is bold: to build the world's most connected commerce ecosystem, and their vision is limitless: to unlock infinite possibilities through seamless commerce. From marketplace listings and inventory management to retail media advertising and shipping optimization, Rithum provides the comprehensive platform that modern commerce demands, helping businesses sell more, stock less, and deliver exceptional customer experiences across every channel.

Corelight transforms network data into definitive evidence, powering AI-driven detection and expert-authored workflows. Founded in 2013 by the creators of the Bro (now Zeek) open-source project, the company emerged from a realization that the best approach to cybersecurity starts with network evidence. The founders, including Dr. Vern Paxson who began this work more than 25 years ago at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, understood that attackers can evade endpoint detection and firewalls, but they cannot avoid leaving digital footprints on the networks they traverse. This insight became the foundation for Corelight's mission to make evidence the heart of security. Today, Corelight is the fastest-growing Network Detection and Response (NDR) platform in the industry, trusted by some of the most sensitive, mission-critical enterprises and government agencies worldwide. The company's Open NDR Platform is uniquely powered by open source innovations including Zeek, Suricata, and YARA, combined with proprietary advances. Corelighters are united by a strong shared culture and values, building an organization that sustains open-source development while delivering enterprise-grade security solutions that help defenders proactively hunt for threats, accelerate incident response, and gain complete network visibility.
