The dispensers are produced at Beyond Gravity’s facility in Linköping, designed to safely deploy more than 3,000 satellites as part of Amazon Leo’s initial satellite constellation. The impact of Amazon’s investment on Beyond Gravity has been significant, facilitating the construction of new high-tech manufacturing facilities equipped with smart and automated manufacturing tools.

This collaboration is an excellent example of how American and Swedish innovation can come together to further strengthen Sweden’s space industry. Out of Amazon’s publicly announced initial investment of over $10 billion in Amazon Leo, an estimated €2.6 billion (26%) will be directed to the EU space sector, with a significant share benefiting Swedish industry. The partnership is expected to contribute €185 million to Sweden’s GDP between 2022 and 2029, support an average of 141 jobs per year, and generate over €57 million in tax revenue for the Swedish government over the same period.

By combining Amazon’s global reach and investment with Swedish engineering expertise, this partnership not only strengthens Sweden’s role as a key player in the international space industry, but also drives economic growth, innovation, and job creation.
