On Wednesday 22 April 2026, Spacebackend, a space-tech startup based in Luxembourg, announced it had secured €1.8 million in pre-seed funding to transform aerospace engineering.

The Luxembourg-based deep-tech startup, which aims to significantly reduce hardware integration timelines, announced the closing of a €1.8 million pre-seed round, led by Bynd Venture Capital, Athos Capital and Draper B1, with additional support from the Luxembourg Space Agency. The company is developing Lynapse™, an engineering platform designed to automate complex hardware-software integration processes in aerospace systems.

“Our ambition is to make Spacebackend a platform that enables the development of the next generation of aerospace systems,” said Dmitry Goldenberg, Founder and CEO of Spacebackend. “We aim to reduce integration efforts from years to days.”

He added: “This funding will allow us to strengthen our team in Luxembourg and accelerate market entry with European companies.”

The platform leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to interpret Interface Control Documents and generate deterministic, flight-ready code, addressing a major bottleneck in mission-critical system development. Spacebackend noted that this approach enables earlier testing and validation, even before hardware becomes available.

“The total amount raised is €1.8 million, with Bynd Venture Capital, Athos Capital and Draper B1 as main investors,” said Yoav Landsman, COO and Managing Director at Spacebackend. “This funding will allow us to strengthen our team in Luxembourg and accelerate market entry with European companies.”

Highlighting the strategic importance of the technology, Francisco Ferreira Pinto, Partner at Bynd Venture Capital, remarked: “Spacebackend is addressing a structural problem in the aerospace industry.” 

Moving forward, the company aims to enable autonomous interoperability across multi-vendor systems. “Our vision is an ecosystem where mission-critical systems can seamlessly connect without bespoke engineering,”added Yoav Landsman.
