Associated Countries

Israel France Russia Netherland United Kingdom Canada United States Since the dawn of the Space Age in 1957, satellites have become a key component for global development across the comity of nations and have enabled signicant social and economic development. The expensive technology hitherto available in large and elite labs, is now accessible to all, thanks to the digital era, the allied miniaturization, and advances in manufacturing. The characteristics of the satellites have undergone a sea- change in dimensions and weight, and are being progressed under the category of small satellites with the nomenclature of Micro-Nano-Pico-Femto.

Miniaturized satellites have several inbuilt advantages over conventional satellites, including lower development costs, ease of mass production, slashed timeline for development and rideshare launch opportunities. Advancements in the eld of engineering and technology have helped the promotion of Student-Centric-Satellite Missions in the academic world, oering the student community a plethora of opportunities in the life-cycle of satellite development, from conceptualization, analysis, integration, launch, and monetization of data assets. World over, 900+ such satellites have been launched by students, and many are in orbit and functional.

Indian Technology Congress Association (ITCA), a platform for technology adherents working to stimulate multi-disciplinary capabilities in tomorrow's workforce, is actively partnering with Academic Institutions, Industry, and Research labs to conceptualize, develop and launch a distinctive programme of “India 75 Student Satellites Mission” through accomplished Institutions in the consortium mode. The Consortium partners will develop Student-Centric-Satellites in co-operation with international space exploration agencies based on the “open collaboration philosophy” paradigm. ITCA has created this ecosystem to inspire “Space Enthusiasts” and provide structured access to technology to progress dynamic missions leading to signicant learning outcomes aligned with industry needs.

To realize this pronounced vision, ITCA is collaborating with International Agencies, National Labs and Industry Experts who have contributed immensely to the development of Satellite missions. ITCA has a renowned panel of globally renowned interdisciplinary experts to mentor students participating in this ambitious programme of Student Satellite development launched at the 6 Indian Technology Congress 2018. Institutions that have participated in the rst International Seminar on “Students' Associated Countries Satellites Mission” have now progressed to “deep-dive” technology-capability- business potential assessments with the Mentors and Domain Experts to nalize missions and the funding structure. Canada France Israel Japan Based on the overwhelming response from Institutions, this International programme is being structured to facilitate institutions to join and expand the consortium.
