Description
A common business pattern is to "sell pickaxes to miners", drawing from lessons of the California gold rush where the people who got rich were often those who sold supplies to the miners instead of the miners themselves. G2V Optics leverages this pattern, supporting the development of better solar panels at space agencies and other places.
Their VP of Sales & Success noted,
G2V Optics provides LED solar simulation solutions to a wide variety of space players including NASA, ESA, Aerospace Corp, mPower, Ball Aerospace, AST Space Mobile, OrbComm, and several more. While we don't send objects into space, we do provide the picks and shovels for our customers to ensure that when their solutions are above the Kármán line they work as expected. — Carl Lorimer, December 16, 2022
