OroraTech Secures €37M To Boost Wildfire Intelligence

OroraTech, a global leader in wildfire intelligence and space-based thermal monitoring, has successfully extended its Series B funding round to €37 million, securing strategic investments from BNP Paribas Solar Impulse Venture Fund and Rabo Ventures. This new infusion of capital is set to further accelerate the company’s efforts to combat wildfires through advanced satellite technology and artificial intelligence.

Headquartered in Germany, OroraTech is leveraging space infrastructure and AI to transform how wildfires are detected, understood, and mitigated across the planet. The latest investment marks a significant milestone in the company’s journey, demonstrating strong market validation and investor confidence in its mission. Over the past year, OroraTech has generated nearly €100 million in contracts and venture capital, underscoring the growing demand for its unique wildfire management capabilities.

At the heart of OroraTech’s innovation is a network of ten satellites that deliver persistent, real-time thermal data from space. This thermal intelligence powers what the company calls a “wildfire digital twin of the Earth”—a constantly updated, global-scale simulation that enables 24/7 wildfire detection, risk estimation, and predictive modeling. These capabilities are central to the company’s flagship offering, the Wildfire Solution platform, which provides end-to-end fire management services. The platform integrates AI-enhanced analytics to assess fire risks, identify ignition points, and forecast fire behavior, making it a vital tool for governments, emergency services, insurance providers, and industries vulnerable to fire-related disruptions.

Dr. Martin Langer, CEO and CTO of OroraTech, emphasized the strategic timing of this funding round. “We are executing on a rare window of opportunity—where our scalable space infrastructure meets breakthrough AI,” he said. “The backing of two of Europe’s leading banks is a testimony to OroraTech’s position at the forefront of the market and will further drive our growth as the foundational thermal intelligence provider for many industries and governments worldwide.”

The extension of the Series B round not only brings in fresh capital but also adds strategic partners who align with OroraTech’s long-term vision of climate resilience and sustainable forest management. Lucas Guillet, Investment Director at BNP Paribas Solar Impulse Venture Fund, highlighted the strength of OroraTech’s technology and market approach. “We are pleased to support OroraTech, which has established a strong reputation in the space industry and wildfire management ecosystem,” said Guillet. “Their ability to design and operate nano-satellites, as well as interpret complex data, has contributed to the commercial success of their Wildfire Intelligence solution.”

Guillet also noted the alignment of this investment with the mission of BNP Paribas and Rabobank’s sustainability-focused funds. “Our network, along with Rabobank, offers a promising chance to support solutions that can improve forest protection globally—a mission that aligns perfectly with our fund’s investment thesis,” he added.

OroraTech’s growing network of partners and investors includes longstanding supporters such as Bayern Kapital, Edaphon, and the European Circular Bioeconomy Fund (ECBF). With these partnerships, OroraTech is well-positioned to scale its operations and deepen its impact, not just as a satellite operator but as a critical infrastructure provider for climate risk intelligence.

As climate change intensifies and wildfire threats become more frequent and severe, the need for real-time, accurate, and predictive data has never been greater. OroraTech is meeting this challenge by combining space technology and machine learning to deliver actionable insights that help prevent catastrophe and enhance environmental protection efforts globally.

With the extended Series B round and strategic backing from two of Europe’s most prominent financial institutions, OroraTech is entering a new phase of growth—one that will see its technology play a central role in safeguarding communities, ecosystems, and economies from the escalating risks of wildfires.
