The partnership will integrate SatSure’s downstream capabilities through its subsidiary KaleidEO, which builds EO payloads and analytics platforms. Dhruva will provide upstream expertise in small satellite platforms, launch integration, and ground station infrastructure.
Both companies aim to deliver sovereign EO services with faster mission timelines and higher reliability, they said in a statement on Monday.
“We are very excited to be joining forces with Dhruva Space. This partnership is poised to boost our sovereign EO capabilities and create a complete package for end customers who need both high-quality data and end-to-end solutions,” said Prateep Basu, founder of SatSure.
The partnership also aims to address the growing demand for EO data across defence, agriculture, urban governance, and environmental monitoring.
Sanjay Nekkanti, CEO of Dhruva Space, said, “This collaboration marks a significant step in building a vertically integrated, sovereign space ecosystem. By combining our capabilities, we can deliver actionable insights for critical applications across multiple sectors.”
Dhruva, which has tested its technology over multiple satellite missions, is currently building a 280,000 sq ft spacecraft manufacturing facility in Hyderabad. The facility will be capable of designing, assembling, integrating, and testing spacecraft of up to 500 kg in weight.
