HawkEye 360 has established its first European subsidiary in Luxembourg, creating a base for expanded operations across the European Union. The company said the new entity will deepen engagement with European governments, customers, industry partners and space-sector organizations.

HawkEye 360 Luxembourg, S.à r.l., will serve as the foundation for the company’s broader European operations and support closer collaboration across the region’s defense and space sectors. The announcement coincided with a meeting between Chief Executive Officer John Serafini and U.S. Ambassador to Luxembourg Stacey Feinberg during World Space Business Week in Paris.

“Europe, its allies and our partners across the region are central to HawkEye 360’s long-term strategy,” Serafini said. “The security environment is changing rapidly, and European nations need proven capabilities that can contribute to missions today.”

The company said operating through an EU-based entity will strengthen its ability to work directly with sovereign partners, European industry and organizations involved in emerging defense programs. The Luxembourg presence is also intended to bring HawkEye 360’s space-based radio-frequency capabilities closer to customers with national security and defense requirements.

HawkEye 360 provides space-based RF data and analytics used by defense and national security organizations to detect, characterize and understand activity across the radio-frequency spectrum. The company said its unclassified, shareable insights can complement sovereign and allied systems and support situational awareness and informed decision-making.

“Luxembourg has built a strong and forward-looking space and defense ecosystem, making it an excellent partner for U.S. companies committed to supporting Europe’s security, resilience and technological leadership,” Feinberg said. “HawkEye 360’s decision to establish its European hub here reflects the strength of Luxembourg’s growing space sector and creates new opportunities for collaboration.”

HawkEye 360 said its European subsidiary will provide a stronger platform for integrating its RF capabilities with sovereign technologies and solutions developed within the region. The company also expects the local presence to support more direct cooperation with European industry as governments pursue new defense and security programs.

“Europe’s defense requirements are accelerating, and customers need capabilities that can be integrated and operationalized quickly,” said Todd Probert, Chief Operating Officer of HawkEye 360. “A European entity gives us a stronger foundation to collaborate directly with European industry, respond to major emerging defense programs, and integrate our proven RF capabilities with sovereign technologies and solutions developed within the region.”
