Digantara Secures $50M to Launch 15 Satellites
Digantara, a spacetech company from Bengaluru, has raised $50 million to launch 15 new satellites.
This money will help them build more satellites, open new offices in the US and Europe, and hire more people.
They will also use the funds to improve their technology for detecting missiles and warning systems.
The company has been working on this for several years and has already tested some of their satellites in space.
They plan to have their new satellites in orbit by 2026–2027 and aim to make $25–30 million in revenue by the end of 2026.
This funding will help them grow from making prototypes to producing satellites on a larger scale.
Digantara raised $50 million in Series B funding to launch a 15-satellite constellation.
The funding will support global expansion, infrastructure deployment, and manufacturing scaling.
Digantara plans to establish a stronger presence in the US and Europe, with $10 million allocated for expansion.
The company is expanding its manufacturing capacity in Bengaluru and setting up a new facility in Colorado Springs.
Digantara aims to achieve revenues of $25–30 million by the end of 2026, driven by defence intelligence contracts.
