Hyderabad Space Firms Seek Global Customers, Partnerships at BSX 2026
Two space companies from Hyderabad want to do more business with customers around the world.
Skyroot Aerospace builds rockets called the Vikram series.
Its Vikram-1 rocket successfully reached orbit on its first flight.
Now Skyroot wants to launch rockets more regularly and understand what international satellite companies need.
Dhruva Space builds satellite equipment, ground systems and other space technologies.
It is looking for customers and partners and is developing a communications platform called Project Garud.
Both companies will use the Bengaluru Space Expo 2026 to meet possible customers and technology partners.
The expo will take place in Bengaluru from September 7 to 9.
