Partner Profile: Hubble Network

Category: NTN (Non-Terrestrial Network) / Direct-to-Satellite BLE Key Contact: Tyler Harnish (Chief Business Officer / Venture GTM) Additional Contacts: Apoorva Nori Origin: Embedded World 2026 (Nuremberg)

Overview

Hubble Network is a pioneering satellite connectivity company attempting to enable standard Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) chips to communicate directly with Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites.

If successful at scale, this technology would radically disrupt the FluxCow "Two-Tier Architecture." Instead of requiring a local Sub-GHz Mesh (Ear tags -> Leader Collar -> NTN), Hubble's tech would allow standard, ultra-low-cost BLE ear tags to ping satellites directly from the open pampa, completely removing the need for gateway collars.

Strategic Position

  • Current State: Their deep-rural coverage is likely still scaling up.
  • JAAB Tech Intent: Join their Satellite Network Preview Program and position ourselves as an AgTech pilot partner for South American livestock telemetry (millions of potential nodes).

Interaction History

  • March 2026: Initial connection with Tyler Harnish and Apoorva Nori at Embedded World.
  • May 1, 2026: Sent formal outreach email inquiring about the Preview Program and AgTech pilots.
  • May 2, 2026: Tyler Harnish replied via direct message acknowledging the email: "Thanks Juan Andrés. I saw your email. Internally I'll have the team message you."

Next Steps

  • [ ] Await contact from the Hubble technical/integration team.
  • [ ] Evaluate if their BLE-to-Satellite link budget can handle the "Body Shadowing" attenuation caused by cattle.
