Skybound is building Texas’s first large-scale, dual-use space-medical technologies company. We develop the medical infrastructure needed to keep humans healthy during long-duration spaceflight while delivering high-value clinical and defense applications on Earth. Our mission is to create transformative medical devices, digital-health platforms, and medical-manufacturing capabilities that enable sustained human presence in space and establish a new industrial engine for Houston and the State of Texas. Skybound operates as a technology developer, manufacturer, and commercialization engine: we run research programs, build manufacturable medical devices and platforms, launch spinouts, and attract investment to Texas. Skybound will create hundreds of new jobs and to found a new dual-use medtech economic sector that diversifies and grows Houston’s space and life-sciences economy. Our work directly supports Texas’s role as a national hub for human spaceflight (centered on Johnson Space Center and Houston) and contributes to the state’s broader aerospace, life-science, and space-operations ecosystem. This effort strengthens Texas’s workforce, federal partnerships, and commercial leadership in human space systems. Our core purpose is to remove the physiological limits on long-duration human presence off-planet by delivering the medical infrastructure and products necessary to keep people healthy in space. In doing so, we will create a scalable, high-value industrial cluster in Texas that serves space exploration, national defense, and civilian clinical markets—creating jobs, attracting federal and private capital, and positioning Texas as a leader in the emerging trillion-dollar space economy.
