What we do

In the heart of Portugal, although a small, yet mighty company we are rewriting the rules of space exploration. Founded in the early 2000s, Omnidea emerged from the incubator at ESA/ESTEC, fuelled by a vision that transcended Earthly boundaries. Tiago Pardal, the company’s president, gazed skyward and saw not just stars, but humanity’s destiny. His passion ignited a journey that would propel Omnidea to the forefront of aerospace innovation.

What we do?

Space Qualified
Components
COTS

For years, Omnidea stands as a testament to precision engineering and unwavering commitment. Specializing in Space-qualified subsystems we play a pivotal role in advancing space exploration, designing, qualifying  and supplying critical components for fluid control in Space propulsion systems. These systems, meticulously crafted and rigorously tested, exemplify our dedication to excellence.

Whether it’s propulsion, fluid control, avionics, or thermal management, we ensure that the cosmos remains within reach.

Space Access

For years, Omnidea has been at the forefront of engineering and innovation, shaping the future of Space access. Our expertise spans critical subsystems, propelling Europe toward self-reliance in launching capabilities.

From liquid propulsion systems, including 25KN to 80KN rocket engines to sub-systems development such as Tanks, RCS, TVC, and control systems that ensure the vehicle stability, agility, and successful navigation, Omnidea’s aim is, through its ongoing launcher projects,  to allow  and envision a future where Europe launches on-demand, reaching for the stars with confidence.

HAPS

Omnidea’s gathered knowledge on hybrid airborne platforms is vast and with the appropriate collaborations, we’re developing High Altitude Pseudo Satellites. Omnidea unwavering commitment to innovation, has delved into HAPS’ potential applications of Earth Observation, maritme survaillance , Disaster response and  monitoring amongst several other applications

Hybrid configuration aircrafts

Energy

Since its inception, Omnidea grew on the idea of allowing for democratised space access, not only for the sake of expanding the horizons but mostly to allow for autonomy and general growth – knowledge is power. The other pillar of this vision is Energy independence.

On that aspect, Omnidea is using Space developed technology to adapt and explore sustainable energy generation and storage
