Axiom Space is “Literal Rocket Science.” Using Vendelux? “No-Brainer”
COMPANY
Axiom Space is an aerospace company building the world’s first commercial space station and next-generation spacesuits. Partnering with NASA, Axiom provides end-to-end missions to the ISS for governments, researchers, and private astronauts, while preparing to launch its own station modules that will eventually operate independently. By advancing human spaceflight infrastructure, Axiom is opening low Earth orbit to research, manufacturing, and tourism.
The Background
Axiom Space is building the replacement to the current International Space Station, and it has to be ready for a seamless transition as soon as the ISS is decommissioned in a few years. So Axiom Space’s CRO, Tejpaul Bhatia doesn’t have time to be inefficient—which is why he doesn’t like thinking back to planning conferences before Vendelux.
“I never attend a conference, I work a conference,” he says. Which is why the moment he saw Vendelux while still working at the CIO office at Google, he was sold.
“I had a whole team working to prepare for conferences,” he says, “and now Vendelux is like a member of the team, making our ground game so much better than was possible before.

The Solution
Axiom’s customers are governments and global corporations, and deal sizes are hundreds of millions of dollars. His first test was when he was attending a conference in Dubai.
“I was leaving the next day,” he remembers, “and the information I received was phenomenal. Gamechanging. I was able to maximize every minute of the conference.”

The conferences he attends have thousands of attendees, and the delegations he needs to meet with might include dozens of ministers. Receiving not just accurate insights but links to full profiles of each attendee allows him to determine how to schedule his time, who to meet with, and how to frame the pitch.
“Vendelux is making me more efficient,” he says. “I was never able to plan to this level of detail.”
The Results
“I use Vendelux to be a better CRO,” he says. Here’s how Vendelux has helped him increase company revenue:
- Revenue has doubled every year since Bhatia joined 3 years ago
- Revenue is up 10x since he started
“In this business I get the deal or I don’t,” he says. “And Vendelux is helping me get the deal.”
