More than 600 people attended the conference with more than 80 speakers and guests from the industry stalwarts. Science Journalists like Shri Pallava Bagla also actively participated in the event. I was a panelist in the session on "Indian Space Industry moving towards AtmaNirbharata across the value chain" moderated by Mr. Vinod Chippalkatti, Centum Electronics. The Indian space industry has been an integral part of the space ecosystem for decades, comprising large, medium, small industries and startups. There is excitement about the future growth of the space sector. Self-reliance will lead to affordable space access and economy benefits but requires holistic development of space ecosystem. Critical materials, lack of standards, need for R&D and skilled manpower pose challenges. Collaborative approach can help overcome these.Additionally, If Government provides supporting policies for easier access to capital and technology for private space startups, that will boost the ecosystem.
