Government of India brought innovation in space sector and gave the mantra of cooperation between the executive and startups, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the launch event of Indian Space Association (ISpA) on October 11.
While adding to it, the Prime Minister said that the new innovation is necessary as this is not the time of liner innovation for India. “Earlier, the space sector was synonymous with government. We changed this mindset,” said Prime Minister Modi.
“This is the time of exponential innovation, which can only be achieved when government doesn't play the role of handler but enabler. Today government is sharing its expertise and providing launch pads for private sector. Today, the facility of ISRO is being opened for private sector,” he added.
