Myriota will use Spire’s existing satellite platform, with the companies planning to quickly increase Myriota’s coverage to a global, low latency constellation and expand its existing coverage in various regions.

“Australia is a hotbed of innovative companies, and it’s gratifying to help a leading satellite connectivity provider go to market quickly and scale up efficiently,” added Condor.
Spire Global’s stock price is currently trading at $15.85, up 3.8% premarket and adding to Tuesday’s 17.9% gains.
