Bengaluru based SatSure, a leading Earth Observation and decision intelligence company, has entered into a strategic alliance with Hyderabad-headquartered Dhruva Space, a full-stack space tech firm, to jointly deliver end-to-end Earth Observation-as-a-Service (EOaaS) solutions.
The collaboration integrates upstream satellite infrastructure with downstream analytics to offer a fully-managed Earth Observation-as-a-Service / EO suite designed to serve commercial and strategic users alike.

The agreement follows two major developments:
- SatSure’s subsidiary KaleidEO successfully qualified its sub-meter resolution optical and multispectral Earth Observation payloads.
- Dhruva Space recently completed a significant expansion, building India’s largest private satellite integration and testing facility, spanning 280,000 square feet.
This partnership enables EO customers to access everything – from satellite development and payload integration to launch, ground station support, data delivery, and analytics – through a single, fully indigenized service.
“This partnership with Dhruva Space represents a powerful fusion of India’s space tech capabilities – from design to deployment,” said Prateep Basu, Founder & CEO of SatSure. “Together, we aim to deliver sovereign Earth Observation-as-a-Service / EO capabilities that meet the growing global demand for real-time, actionable insights.”
Sanjay Nekkanti, CEO of Dhruva Space, added, “By combining Dhruva’s satellite and ground segment infrastructure with SatSure’s AI-driven analytics from KaleidEO, we can significantly reduce mission turnaround time while enhancing the quality and accessibility of Earth Observation data for critical decision-makers.”
