Idea or High Level Concept
Promin Aerospace is here to make suborbital, orbital, and lunar missions faster, cheaper, and easier to help humanity move beyond our planet sooner and to improve the quality of life here on Earth.
Territory of the product or service implementation
Global (world)
Traction and Current Status
A working prototype of the engine. A team that knows how to deliver. Secured launch sites. Direct dialogue with future clients. Active support from UA and UK governments.
Problem or Opportunity
The world currently lacks access to rapid, flexible, regular suborbital launches. Almost every suborbital launcher is built either by a giant corporation or government. It means they are either too expensive, fly infrequent, can't be adapted, or any combination of said things.
Solution
A class of rockets with flexible starting mass, which gives them the ability to perform dedicated launches for payloads of any mass, for both suborbital and orbital missions.
Business Model, Chanells, Metrics
We will operate through direct sales and brokerage agreements for launches. There will be one-time clients, multiple usage clients, and recurring yearly clients.
Competitors and Existing Alternatives
Now there are different kinds of space rockets on the market. The closed to us is https://www.isaraerospace.com/ - they also do small rockets, but our rockets will be even smaller and technology itself is different.
Advantages or differentiators
Our technology makes it possible to implement some aspects that are inaccessible for conventional rocketry: * to develop the launch vehicles with the launch mass of several hundred kilograms designed for the mass launch of pico-satellites weighing up to hundreds of grams (similar to cell phones); * to produce single-stage launch vehicles that burn up completely and thus do not pollute the Earth's surface; * to launch satellites from the Ukrainian territory and territories of other countries which don't have access to orbital launches as of right now; to deploy cheap satellite systems with the cost of just 100 thousand dollars per single satellite launch; * to establish "the personal satellite" concept; * to equip nano- and pico-satellites that are launched utilizing our rockets with propulsion systems for orbital maneuvers; * to organize the production of autophagic rockets in small private enterprises and laboratories, as the production of modern small satellites is organized

Money will be spent on
First, on hiring the best team of engineers, because the most important to us - is to build the team who will be able to deliver. When working in a high-end technology industry like Space your product is what matters first and the most. Only after the engineering team we have can't possibly be any better we'll start actively spending on PR, Sales, and so on.
