of the Tanager and Pelican satellites this year, growth of AI
capabilities, and rollout of the recent Planet Insights Platform,
Planet is on the edge of scaling in a big way,” said Susan
Wojcicki. “I look forward to advising the Company to further scale
the adoption of these solutions, to achieve their mission of making
global change visible, accessible and actionable for organizations
around the world, all towards the tremendous impact I know the
company can have.”
