For the second round of the programme, the committee composed of members from ESRIC, Technoport, LSA, LIST and ESA, chose Lightigo Space from a pool of five excellent startups coming from Canada, the US, Poland, Luxembourg, and the Czech Republic. On this upcoming 24-month incubation phase, the venture will set up a registered business branch in The Grand Duchy, hosted at Technoport and will receive additional technical, business and marketing support from a team of experts in business innovation, as well as funding in the form of a non-repayable grant of up to € 200,000. During the pre-incubation phase that lasted for three months, Lightigo Space, originally from Brno, has validated a technology business proposal - In-Situ Resource Analyzer (ISRA), a commercially available Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) payload for lunar prospecting and regolith survey.
