AAC Clyde Space Sees Adding Intel General To Board
11th Apr 2025
Swedish-Scottish space industry company AAC Clyde Space aims to bring Swedish Major General Lars-Olaf Corneliusson on as a member of the Board of Directors. The company notes that in Europe, Major General Corneliusson has held positions including Director of Intelligence at the EU Military Staff in Brussels and military adviser at the Swedish MFA. His military roles brought him in close close contact with the juncture of military and space interests, and worked closely with Sweden’s Spacemetric, which was purchased by AAC Clyde Space in 2024.
“In today’s volatile geopolitical landscape, space is an increasingly decisive domain for security. Having followed AAC Clyde Space’s contributions in applied military contexts, I believe the company is uniquely positioned to support the growing demand for space-enabled security solutions in Europe and globally,” says Major General Corneliusson.
“Lars-Olof brings a unique combination of operational defence experience and international strategic insight. We are since long engaged in space-based security systems, where the single largest user group of our maritime AIS data are coast guards. This need of security systems is growing and so is our engagement in in the sector, the INFLECION programme announced earlier this year is an excellent example of this. With Lars-Olof we are increasing our insight and knowledge base for our investments in the use of space-based data for security and intelligence,” says Rolf Hallencreutz, Chairman of the Board and member of the company’s Nomination Committee.
The company will vote on bringing Major General Corneliusson into the Board at its shareholders’ meeting in May 2025.
AAC Clyde Space INFLECION Points
Bringing Major General Corneliusson on board is one of several developments within AAC Clyde Space. The company launched the INFLECION project in February 2025 to enhance maritime domain awareness at a time when tensions are running higher on the seas. The company is also branching out from its strengths in satellite production and satellite data products to simulate those products with UAVs.
