WISeKey’s subsidiary has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Spacetalk to operate a platform for global space traffic management, effective January 21, 2026. The agreement enables the joint development of a secure, blockchain-based system to monitor and coordinate satellite movements in low Earth orbit.
