Listen Later

In this Better Satellite World podcast, based on the May 2025 edition of the New York Space Business Roundtable, leaders from Pixxel, Dhruva Space, TMT Law Practice, VegaMX, and the US-India Business Council have a candid conversation about opportunity, access, and alignment in India's rapidly growing space sector. Our speakers include:

  • Chetan Bikkina, Chief Commercial Officer, Dhruva Space Private Limited
  • Jay Gullish, Executive Director, Digital Policy, U.S.-India Business Council (USIBC)
  • Abhishek Malhotra, Senior Advocate, Chamber of Abhishek Malhotra
  • Vivek Mital, CEO, VegaMX Inc.
  • Aakash Parekh, Chief Commercial Officer, Pixxel
