Ex Terra Podcast - Jason Kanigan @ ColdStar Technologies

Our guest on this edition of The Ex Terra Podcast is Jason Kanigan, the founder of Cold Star Technologies and host of the Cold Star Project and Make Space Boring podcasts.

Cold Star Technologies is an “installer of systems for other companies with a focus on operational excellence and systems processes,” according to Jason Kanigan. The company works closely with a variety of businesses in various stages of development including those engaged in the small satellite industry.

Host Tom Patton talks with Kanigan about many of the challenges faced by start-up companies in the smallsat industry, ranging from development of the processes that will lead to successful missions to legal and regulatory roadblocks that may pop up along the way.

Cold Star Technologies offers courses for start-up and developing businesses that give them insight into smallsat mission success and a sales training program for space founders and business development executives.

Kanigan is also the host of The Cold Star Project, a podcast series for tech and manufacturing founders who want help scaling their business fast. Season One of the Cold Star Project was centered on the unexpected challenges of scaling businesses, particularly those concerned with compliance cultures and time-based critical missions.

Season Two is focused on smallsat and other space startups specifically. A major shift is occurring in Space, from a “job shop” production mentality to a mass production automotive style. And Cold Star has much experience with that style, plus the change management skills needed to successfully transition to it.

The podcast is available on Anchor.fm, as well as most of the popular podcast platforms. And there is a YouTube version of the podcast as well.

The goal, Jason Kanigan says, is to “Make Space Boring” to both the public and investors. Listen to the podcast to discover what that means …
