I also met Tanveer Ahmed of Digantara, another space start-up that is trying to map waste in space.” “Neha, the founder of Astrome, a space start-up in Bangalore, is working on an amazing idea. These start-ups are making such flat antennas which will not only be small, but their cost will also be very less. Demand for this technology can be all over the world.
