What customers say about us

Vertical52 has discovered the still young discipline of satellite journalism for itself and can rely on years of experience in this field. We were able to get an idea of this during research on the cotton harvest in western China. This pilot project won the German Reporter Award in 2022.

Lutz Ackermann, NDR Panorama & STRG_F

Working with Vertical52 has been phenomenal. You always have a contact, they are super fast to reach and also deliver super fast.

Lea Weinmann, Süddeutsche Zeitung

That's great, would be great to work with Vertical52 longer!

Fabian Löhe, Table Media

Thanks for the great pictures - we were very excited.

Daniel Kummertz, NDR Schleswig Holstein

The possibilities of Vertical52's offer are considerable - for worldwide searches, but also in the local.

About us

Research from space

We want to establish satellite journalism as a new discipline of journalistic work. Because what used to be the preserve of the military and intelligence services opens up completely new opportunities for journalists to conduct (investigative) research. That's why we founded Vertical52 in Berlin in 2023. You can find us at Publix - on the 52nd parallel.
