Accion Systems is a provider of propulsion systems for satellites based on proprietary technology developed at MIT. It develops advanced technologies for the new space industry. The company’s propulsion systems are some of the first that can add maneuverability and lifetime to small satellites and can be scaled up to support satellites up to 2000 kg. Accion Systems’ modular, customizable propulsion systems are some of the first that can turn affordable satellites into capable ones. Its non-volatile, non-explosive propellants mean systems qualify for shared launches. The company’s bolt-on modules simplify and shorten satellite development and integration. Accion Systems was founded in 2014 by Natalya Brikner and is headquartered in Cambridge, M.A.
