“I congratulate the entire Skyroot Aerospace team on the historic orbital launch of Vikram-1. Having spent years working within the satellite sector, witnessing this definitive moment is both inspiring and deeply moving. This milestone beautifully demonstrates how India’s space economy is thriving through a truly collaborative ecosystem where government, brilliant startups, academia, investors and global industry players are helping build the NewSpace future together. With the eyes of young India fixed on Sriharikota, the horizon for commercial innovation has never looked brighter.”
