Founder, Space Zenith

Mr. Brian Zhou (周伯陽先生) is the founder of Space Zenith, a Hong Kong–based AI‑native space company developing Agentic AI architectures for next‑generation Earth Intelligence. His work focuses on enabling satellites and orbital networks to operate as autonomous, distributed compute nodes.

Brian graduated from the Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIRCAS) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. Before founding Space Zenith, he served as Vice President at AIRSAT Technology Group, a commercial aerospace enterprise spun out of AIRCAS that builds satellites and delivers global Earth Observation (EO) data services. (Note: EO refers to satellite‑based sensing of Earth’s surface, oceans, and atmosphere, the foundation of climate monitoring, disaster response, and geospatial intelligence.)

At AIRSAT, Brian led international partnerships across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America, working on EO satellite construction, payload integration, and value‑added analytics. This frontline experience exposed him to the sector’s biggest bottleneck: EO data volumes are growing faster than ground systems can process or downlink.

This is why Brian now focuses on Agentic AI + orbital compute. His vision is to connect Chinese and international partners through an AI‑orchestrated space infrastructure where satellites can process, filter, and act on data directly in orbit, enabling real‑time Earth Intelligence. His work positions Space Zenith at the intersection of EO, autonomous agents, and space‑based data centres — the technologies shaping the next decade of the space economy.
