About Astrogate Labs
Founded in 2017 by Nitish Singh, Yogeshwaran J, and Subhajit Chakraborty, the Bengaluru-based Astrogate Labs offers technology to improve data transmission for small satellite constellations, making it easier to send data to the ground.
With over 25,000 small satellites expected to be in orbit by 2030, current radio systems struggle with limited bandwidth and crowded frequencies. Astrogate's laser communication solutions offer a scalable alternative for fast, secure data transmission at speeds up to 10 Gbps.
Astrogate Labs has also been recognized for its technological innovations, including the DRDO Dare to Dream 4.0 award and graduating from the Seraphim Space Accelerator APAC Program in 2023.
