Seraphim Space Investment Trust plc (SSIT) announced that ICEYE, a leader in space-based intelligence, is raising €450 million ($520 million) through a Series F financing round. This funding round values ICEYE at over €10 billion ($12 billion), which represents a significant uplift for SSIT's largest portfolio holding and the Trust's Net Asset Value (NAV). The proceeds are intended to support ICEYE's global expansion and intelligence capabilities.
