Greenerwave is a French deep-tech company developing technologies that enable the control and optimization of electromagnetic waves for communications, connectivity, and sensing applications. Founded in 2015 by CNRS researcher Geoffroy Lerosey and ESPCI Paris professor Mathias Fink, the company emerged from pioneering academic research in wave physics, wavefront shaping, and intelligent materials conducted at Institute Langevin and ESPCI Paris. Since its inception, Greenerwave has focused on translating advanced scientific research into practical solutions for telecommunications, satellite communications, radar, and detection systems.
At the core of Greenerwave's innovation is its proprietary Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) technology. RIS uses electronically controlled metasurfaces and advanced physics-inspired algorithms to dynamically steer, redirect, and optimize electromagnetic waves in real time. Unlike conventional antenna systems that rely heavily on complex hardware and semiconductor-intensive architectures, Greenerwave shifts much of the signal-processing complexity into software, enabling lower power consumption, reduced semiconductor dependence, and more cost-efficient deployments.
The company's technology combines intelligent reconfigurable materials with what it describes as "deep physics" algorithms, drawing on decades of research in wave control and wavefront shaping. These algorithms are designed to optimize signal propagation across a wide range of environments and frequency bands, allowing wireless networks and sensing systems to adapt dynamically to changing conditions. Greenerwave's approach has positioned the company among the early pioneers of RIS technology, an area increasingly viewed as a key enabler for advanced 5G, future 6G, and non-terrestrial network architectures.
Greenerwave's product portfolio is centered on satellite communications and intelligent surface technologies. Its flagship SATCOM offerings include the Ku-band user terminal family, featuring Ku GEO, Ku LEO, and multi-orbit GEO/LEO terminals, as well as a Ka-band user terminal designed for next-generation satellite connectivity. These electronically steerable terminals leverage RIS technology to provide multi-orbit connectivity without relying on traditional mechanically steered antennas. The company also develops RIS platforms compatible with FR1, FR2, and FR3 frequency bands, supporting research and development efforts in advanced wireless communications.
Beyond satellite communications, Greenerwave applies its technology to telecommunications infrastructure, private wireless networks, radar systems, RFID applications, and emerging non-terrestrial network (NTN) architectures. The company is also developing beamforming antenna technologies aimed at supporting advanced 5G and future 6G deployments, where efficient signal steering and network coverage optimization are becoming increasingly important.
The company's mission centers on improving the efficiency and sustainability of wireless communications by enabling greater control over the electromagnetic environment. Through software-driven wave management and energy-efficient hardware architectures, Greenerwave seeks to address growing demands for connectivity while reducing infrastructure complexity, energy consumption, and dependence on scarce semiconductor resources.
Its long-term vision is to help build a more accessible, sustainable, and resilient wireless ecosystem. The company sees RIS technology as a foundational element for future communications networks, supporting applications that range from satellite broadband and mobile communications to sensing and autonomous systems. By combining scientific research with industrial-scale product development, Greenerwave aims to expand the role of intelligent electromagnetic environments in next-generation connectivity infrastructure.
