Seattle-based Hubble Network says it has raised $70 million in additional investment to accelerate the growth of its satellite-powered Bluetooth network.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur vision has always been to connect billions of devices seamlessly and cost-effectively, without requiring hardware or infrastructure,\u201d Alex Haro, the company\u2019s co-founder and CEO, said today in a news release. \u201cThis round confirms the strong demand for scalable, low-power, global IoT connectivity.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Series B funding round builds on $30 million in previously announced investments. This round was led by Ryan Swagar, co-founder of Swagar Capital. Other investors include Tom Gonser, co-founder of DocuSign; Mike Farley, co-founder of Tile; Marc Weiser, managing director and founder of RPM Ventures; Tuff Yen, founder and managing partner of Seraph Group; and Y Combinator.<\/p>\n

\u201cHubble is doing what many thought was impossible, making space accessible for everyday devices,\u201d Swagar said. \u201cTheir unique architecture, strong technical execution and proven customer demand position them to define the future of global connectivity.\u201d<\/p>\n

In July, Hubble Network unveiled a system that uses satellites and low-power Bluetooth signals to monitor devices and sensors around the globe. The network relies on a technology called Bluetooth Low Energy, also known as BLE, plus proprietary enhancements that make it possible for Bluetooth signals to be picked up by phased-array antennas on Hubble Network\u2019s satellites.<\/p>\n

The company has no connection to NASA\u2019s Hubble Space Telescope. Instead, Hubble Network\u2019s name plays off the idea that its network can serve as a hub for BLE transmissions. It currently operates seven satellites but plans to grow that constellation to 60 satellites by 2028.<\/p>\n

Hubble Network has partnered with Life 360 and Tile to reach more than 90 million devices, and is joining forces with Muon Space to build larger satellites for its expanded constellation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
