Scuola Di Ingegneria Aerospaziale
The School of Aerospace Engineering (SIA) at Sapienza University of Rome has been a pioneering academic institution in the field of aerospace engineering since 1926. Starting from the 1960’s the School’s activities began focusing mainly in astronautics, designing and manufacturing the satellites of the San Marco series, leading Italy to become the third nation in the world to have a satellite in orbit. Nowadays, thanks to the UniSat educational series and later satellites such as Lares and TigriSat, and the multidisciplinary approach between technological research and teaching, the School has become a worldwide flagship institution in astronautics.

Intella
Intella builds data intelligence software for satellite operations. As satellite fleets grow, operations do not scale linearly. What breaks first is not the spacecraft, but the human effort required to continuously confirm that everything is nominal across fragmented tools, shifts, and missions. Intella is a space-technology company that helps satellite operators scale operations safely and reliably without increasing headcount, cognitive load, or operational risk. Intella’s software platform, Mercury, acts as an operational intelligence layer on top of existing ground systems. It continuously reviews housekeeping telemetry in the background, filters out non-actionable noise, and surfaces only what truly requires human attention. This allows operators to spend less time on routine checks and more time on real operational decisions. By automating nominal monitoring, detecting weak signals before static thresholds are breached, and structuring investigations into reusable operational workflows, Mercury enables calmer operations, faster triage, and consistent practices across fleets and missions. Mercury is designed to augment—not replace—mission control systems and existing ground-segment tooling. It integrates into heterogeneous environments, supports progressive automation that operators can trust, and keeps humans in control at every step. Intella works with several satellite operators, including D-Orbit, and with partners across the space ecosystem, like Telespazio, to deploy Mercury in live operational environments. As fleets, missions, and service commitments grow, operational complexity becomes a silent risk. Intella exists to make that complexity manageable—so teams can scale with confidence, stay in control, and trust their operations as they grow beyond what manual processes and human attention alone can safely sustain.
