SpacePartnerships.com is a private company (currently a sole proprietorship) located in Alexandria, VA, dedicated to the
creation and promotion of partnerships for the purpose of conducting commerce in space. It offers research services to
companies involved in space commerce. These services include, but are not limited to, finding technologies needed for space
ventures, finding research organizations to develop new technologies, working with research organizations and program and
project managers in the companies to create partnerships for developing new technologies or applying existing technologies to
the company's space commerce needs, working with both partners to arrange financing for the projects, and promoting the
projects to government agencies and other companies.
The following is a partial list of services available:
- Provide a one-stop portal to the Research Partnership Centers (RPCs), which is a program that the president of
SpacePartnerships.com ran at NASA headquarters for three years, and with which he was associated as a director of
one of the centers for over ten years. The RPCs are consortia of industry, academia and government located at
universities and non-profit organizations across the country. These eleven centers, plus several others with which the
company will be working, span a wide range of science and technology fields that are germane to space exploration and
space commerce, including autonomous medical care, communications, electronics, energy storage, environmental
control and life support, fluid control, spacecraft technology, space power, propulsion, materials, navigation,
telemedicine and thermal management.
- Provide initial contacts to the appropriate people in the centers and work with the company and the center up to the point
at which a contractual arrangement between the company and the performing center is established.
- Conduct searches for existing technologies and developmental capabilities outside the RPCs in areas specified by the
company.
- Develop reports on state of the art, including Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) in technology areas specified by the
company.
