Through IN-SPACe and NSIL agreements, Indian firms have secured access to ISRO-developed technologies.
Five technologies developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) have been transferred to private firms for commercial use in sectors including biomedical equipment, renewable energy, and aerospace. The Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) formalised the agreements in Ahmedabad along with NewSpace India Limited (NSIL) and the recipient companies.
Voltix Semicon, Pune, received the Low Temperature Co-Fired Ceramic (LTCC) Multi-Chip Module technology developed by the Space Applications Centre (SAC). The module allows multiple semiconductor chips to be integrated into a single compact unit, with applications in biomedical equipment, including RT-PCR kits.
Crest Speciality Resins, Ahmedabad, acquired the Room-Temperature Vulcanising (RTV) Silicone Single-Part Adhesive (SILCEM R9) technology from the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC). The adhesive is used in solar panel bonding and is currently imported.
Azista Composites, Hyderabad, obtained the Film Adhesives EFA 1753 and EFA 1752 technologies, also developed by VSSC, for aerospace and industrial applications.
Ananth Technologies secured the 30W HMC DC-DC Converter technology from the U R Rao Satellite Centre (URSC). Pushpak Aerospace received URSC’s technology for anodisation of 3D-printed Al-10Si-Mg alloy, which strengthens aluminium components for aerospace use.
With these transfers, the number of Technology Transfer Agreements (TTAs) facilitated by IN-SPACe with industry partners has reached 98. The transferred technologies cover applications in biomedical devices, renewable energy, aerospace manufacturing, and industrial electronics, creating scope for wider integration into non-space sectors.
