PS27 Founder Mode Podcast with Andrew Rush, Co-Founder and CEO of Star Catcher

In this episode of the Founder Mode Podcast, we sit down with Andrew Rush, Co-Founder and CEO of Star Catcher, to discuss the future of the space economy. Earlier this year, Andrew was named PS27 Entrepreneur of the Year for his role at Star Catcher. Star Catcher is developing the world's first space-based power grid, and Andrew shares his journey from space executive to founder, the realities of scaling deep-tech startups, and why building energy infrastructure is humanity's next massive frontier.

Key Topics Covered:

The Space Power Grid: Why satellites are currently power-constrained-equivalent to a "gaming computer" in space-and how Star Catcher is solving this to enable future industries.

AI as an Agent: Andrew's two mantras for implementing AI: automating grunt work agents while maintaining team accountability for the final work product.

Raising Capital: Insights from his recent $65M Series A and the importance of persistence, what he describes as "always swinging the bat" to eventually connect. Future Vision: Industrializing low Earth orbit from research and manufacturing to future life in space.
