GRANT BLAISDELL

Grant Blaisdell is a serial entrepreneur building ventures that merge advanced technologies with real-world impact. He is the CEO and co-founder of Copernic Space, the first digital platform for commercializing and financing real-world space assets and ventures. By using blockchain and tokenization, Copernic Space is creating the economic infrastructure for space, transforming it into an asset class and liquid market. The platform has already set new standards by commercializing rockets and financing and creating sales for payloads to the Moon. Next, it will launch sales that establish standards for in-orbit computation, satellite assets, space stations, and investment instruments — marking a fundamental shift in how space assets are accessed, financed and owned.

Before founding Copernic Space, Grant co-founded Coinfirm, a leading ML platform for blockchain analytics and anti-money laundering. He built the company from the ground up into a category leader trusted by financial institutions, governments and major crypto protocols. Coinfirm was successfully exited and remains one of the foundational compliance platforms in the digital asset ecosystem.

Grant is also a partner and shareholder in Big Idea, the company behind Clout Festival, one of Europe's fastest-growing youth culture brands. He co-created TIXY, a blockchain-based ticketing platform designed to combat fraud and reshape the secondary ticket market.

His life mission for space stems from a three-generation family legacy. His mother, Eva Blaisdell — known as Lady Rocket — is his co-founder at Copernic Space. His grandfather, Tadeusz Gajewski, built the original Polish space program that made Poland the fourth nation to send an astronaut into space. His works were published by NASA, and his early vision to democratize access to space inspired the foundation of Copernic Space.

As President of the Lady Rocket Foundation, Grant also advances global space education, public engagement and STEM initiatives that broaden access to the future of exploration.
