RogueBeam

Founded in 2026

Seattle, WA

RogueBeam builds vertically integrated phased-array systems, co-designing the RFIC, the antenna, and the system under one roof instead of stitching together generic off-the-shelf parts. It was founded by three of the engineers behind Starlink's user terminal and phased-array program: Kim Schulze (RF silicon), Ersin Yetisir (antenna), and Amir Agah (RFIC). By designing the chip and the aperture together for a specific mission, RogueBeam reaches a cost and performance envelope that only vertical integration makes possible, and sells that capability as deep co-development partnerships rather than a catalog of standard components.

COMPANY OVERVIEW

RogueBeam

THESIS FIT

RogueBeam sits in the Infrastructure layer of our Space Economy framework, in the components that determine what the connectivity buildout can actually ship. Phased arrays are the gating hardware for the SatCom inflection, direct-to-device, and the growing convergence of defense and space, yet high-performance arrays remain locked behind legacy, siloed supply chains. RogueBeam attacks that constraint at the source by owning the RFIC-to-aperture stack, the same vertical-integration approach that made Starlink's user terminal viable at consumer price points. It reflects the pattern we invest behind: operators who solved a problem inside the category's defining company, then built the enabling hardware the next wave depends on. Because the same capability serves satellite, airborne, and terrestrial customers across commercial and defense markets, a space-born company carries demand well beyond space.
