Overview

IMT Srl is a private Italian small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) founded in 1991 and headquartered in Rome. The company operates in the space sector across three main activity areas: Space systems engineering (design and development of nano/microsatellites and their on-board units for commercial, scientific and defense applications); Parts engineering (characterization and testing of Electrical, Electronic and Electro-Mechanical, or EEE, components); and Satellite IoT solutions (design and development of IoT solutions for smart cities, environmental monitoring, infrastructure monitoring and agriculture). IMT's product portfolio centers on flight-proven CubeSat platforms. Its 3U CubeSat platform is designed to support a wide range of mission typologies including science, Earth observation and technology demonstration, with a redundant architecture and radiation mitigation by design that can extend satellite lifetime up to five years. The 6U platform is presented as a flexible solution meeting performance requirements for a broad range of applications. Alongside the platforms, IMT offers on-board units such as a C-band transponder, an X-band transponder and the IMT µSADA. The company also develops the NADIR nanosatellite and has participated in R&D projects such as the ERMES CubeSat 3U under a Region Lazio program and the BISS (Bi-directional IoT Satellite Service) project with the Italian Space Agency. IMT describes itself as a quality-driven organization with a team passionate about space. Massimo Perelli serves as CEO and Owner, supported by a management team that includes a General Manager, Chief Technical Officer, Chief Administrative Officer and managers responsible for ICT, the digital laboratory, quality, mechanical engineering, and physical and electrical testing laboratories. The company is based at Via Carlo Bartolomeo Piazza 30 in Rome and maintains a website at imtsrl.it. It is a private company with share capital of €150,000 fully paid, VAT IT04047011004, and is not publicly listed.

History

IMT Srl was founded in 1991 and has been active in the space sector since then. The company describes itself as a private SME focused on two main types of activities: Parts Engineering — characterization and testing of Electrical, Electronic and Electro-Mechanical (EEE) parts — and Systems Engineering — design and development of nano/microsatellites and relevant on-board units for space commercial, scientific and defense applications. Over time it has added satellite IoT solutions as a third activity area, covering smart cities, environmental monitoring, infrastructure monitoring and agriculture. IMT's systems engineering work has produced flight-proven CubeSat platforms. Its 3U CubeSat platform supports science, Earth observation and technology demonstration missions, with a mechanical and electrical architecture that can accommodate a wide range of low Earth orbit altitudes and inclinations. Redundant architecture and radiation mitigation by design can increase satellite lifetime up to five years. The company also offers a 6U platform as a flexible solution for a broad range of applications, along with on-board units including a C-band transponder, an X-band transponder and the IMT µSADA. It has developed the NADIR nanosatellite. IMT has participated in research and development programs. The ERMES CubeSat 3U, a scientific nanosatellite, was developed by IMT as a result of a Region Lazio program. The company has also engaged with the Italian Space Agency (ASI), including a kick-off meeting for the BISS (Bi-directional IoT Satellite Service) project, and has taken part in an ASI workshop on EEE space components. It has explored cooperation opportunities with Tor Vergata University and a delegation from the United Arab Emirates. As of the 2021–2024 period reflected on its website, IMT remains a private company headquartered in Rome at Via Carlo Bartolomeo Piazza 30. Massimo Perelli is CEO and Owner. The management team includes Giovanni Cucinella as General Manager, Andrea Negri as Chief Technical Officer, Salvatore Capraro as Chief Administrative Officer, and managers for ICT, the digital laboratory, quality, mechanical engineering, and physical and electrical testing laboratories. The company reports share capital of €150,000 fully paid and VAT number IT04047011004.
