Reply to comment by CurtisLeow in Bruno Le Maire: Europe needs ‘unwavering unity’ against China, US in space by Soupjoe5

The original company (WorldVu) was registered in Jersey (obviously for tax purposes) and for a long time the headquarters were in Arlington, VA.

But they moved to London (that was initially home to the backup operation center and some employees) after the bankruptcy when the UK government invested in the company.

I think a majority of the workforce is now in London. Whether UK is part of Europe or not is up for debate (not part of EU/ESA anymore, on an island...)

UK is still part of ESA and reasonibly well integrated with the European space sector.
