Colorado Governor Jared Police announced the expansion on Tuesday, confirming the state’s commitment to innovation and strengthening its relationship with India’s growing space industry. Digantara began his journey as an incubated company at IISC.
The company’s US expansion comes from India-US’s major strategic initiatives, including initiatives on key and emerging technologies (ICET) and Indus-X frameworks.
The company has invested more than $1 million so far, and has set up a dedicated facility for the production of Colorado spacecraft and space optics production, with 105 million to 1500 million over the next 6-8 months. I plan to invest 1,000 million dollars.
The facility supports US intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) needs. Colorado has pledged nearly $1 million operational incentives to support Digantara’s US expansion.
“The expansion to the US strengthens our commitment to globalizing space surveillance and intelligence. As space threats evolve, investments in resilient technologies will also be required, and mission-critical. We need to be deployed to support the defense and intelligence reporting business.
The company has entered the US market with established contracts with several Department of Defense (DOD) agencies, including the US Air Force (USAF) and Space Force. Digantara is involved in programs led by Space Rapid Capability Office (SPACE RCO), Under Deference of The Under Deference for Research and Engineering (OUSD), and Space Systems Command’s SDA TAP Lab, developing advanced SSA capabilities. It’s there.
Within the $60 billion space surveillance and information market, Digantara is pursuing defense contracts in both the US and India. As the US holds its major market share, this expansion will focus on providing solutions for mission-critical operations, war game analysis and strategic defense applications. With the implementation of existing government contracts, the company aims to achieve revenues of between $250-$330 million over the next two years.
Digantara recently launched Scot, the first space-based surveillance satellite, on the SpaceX Transporter-12 mission. Equipped with an electro-optic sensor, Scot can track space objects for residents as small as 5cm.
The mission focuses on addressing existing sensor limitations by enabling accurate tracking and higher revisiting rates, and increasing spatial safety and situational awareness. Following contact after launch, the satellite has been tested. Through the US expansion, Digantara aims to strengthen India-US collaboration, strengthen space surveillance capabilities, and address national security challenges.
