The Rise of Navneet Singh’s Kepler Aerospace: Building India’s New Space Backbone
Navneet Singh, founder and CEO of Kepler Aerospace, is quietly building India’s new space backbone through small satellites and space-grade components. Founded in the mid-2010s, Kepler focuses on the less visible aspects of modern space missions, such as reliable small satellites, precision parts, and custom electronics. Under Singh’s leadership, Kepler has positioned itself as a critical partner in India’s strategic space ecosystem, focusing on in-house development and investing heavily in materials R&D. The company is working on building an integrated ecosystem, including satellites, ground control infrastructure, and AI-powered analytics platforms, with clients including defense agencies, universities, and startups. Kepler’s quiet evolution has earned it a powerful reputation, enabling India’s space economy to scale, secure, and self-rely.
