Three students, one vision and the drive to catapult Europe back into the space race. The beginnings of Isar Aerospace almost sound like a startup fairy tale. Within a few years, Daniel Metzler, Josef Fleischmann and Markus Brandl have built up the best-financed space-tech startup of the continent. Your strategy? “Today we can produce, test and – if we have to adjust something – adapt and newly produce within a few hours. You need several months for this,” said co -founder Fleischmann in an interview with the start -up scene.
The company has grown sharply since its foundation – from around 20 people in April 2019 to 220 employees at the end of December 2021. Isar Aerospace is currently employed by more than 400 employees from the end of 2024. They will soon move from the current headquarters in Ottobrunn near Munich to the nearby community of Vaterstetten. The new location should then accommodate the production, development and corporate headquarters of Isar Aerospace.
