About US
A community-driven company
Light Bridges, founded by researchers, is a small private company with social purpose. Our vision is advancing scientific knowledge while promoting both environmental and financial sustainability.
In the Canary Islands, we manage five robotic telescopes at the Teide Observatory —part of the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC)— alongside Astronomy High-Performance Computing Centers, funded by private investors.
Our mission
Shared world-class scientific infrastructures.
We democratize access to world-class scientific facilities, enabling countries and research organizations to budget our shared resources without the need for significant investment in proprietary telescopes or computing centers in the Canary Islands. Our platform allows members of the space community to bypass lengthy procedures and avoid high-risk expenditures on infrastructure, personnel and logistics.
Collaborative Projects
In addition to facilitating shared access to our scientific infrastructures, we promote cooperation on carefully selected science projects with top research institutions.
