ReOrbit Appoints Markus Räikkönen as Chief Commercial Officer

ReOrbit, a leading manufacturer for sovereign communications satellites, has appointed Markus Räikkönen as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), effective July 2025.

Markus has been involved in ReOrbit’s commercial development since 2023 as an Investor and active Board Director, focusing on nation partnerships. His appointment as CCO represents a natural progression in strengthening ReOrbit’s commercial leadership as the company accelerates its global expansion.

“Markus has played a key role in shaping our commercial strategy over the past two years,” said Sethu Saveda Suvanam, CEO and Founder of ReOrbit. “As we scale our international presence and deepen our role in critical space infrastructure, his expertise in global business relations and geopolitics, along with his long-term vision and ambition, will be a great asset in steering our commercial direction,” Suvanam concludes.

“To continue ReOrbit’s journey as CCO at this pivotal moment is an exciting opportunity,” said Markus Räikkönen. “The importance of secure data from nationally controlled sovereign satellites has created a multibillion market opportunity for ReOrbit. Communication and intelligence data is the current need, and as we enter the Age of Robots, the need for space connectivity will increase and widen the markets massively. Similarly, as Nokia was in forefront of the mobile evolution, ReOrbit is now leading the space comms evolution.”

I look forward to building on what we’ve started—scaling international growth, deepening strategic partnerships, and ensuring that Finland and ReOrbit play a leading role in the future of space infrastructure,” states Räikkönen.
