Thane-based space technology company InspeCity Space Laboratories has announced the appointment of Rajeev Gambhir as Executive Vice President.
In his new role, Gambhir will lead the company’s institutional engagement, strategic partnership development, corporate positioning, strategic opportunity development, and international partnerships to support its long-term business objectives.
He will also work closely with the executive leadership team to strengthen relationships across government, industry, research institutions, and the broader global space ecosystem.
InspeCity is building a vertically integrated technology stack spanning Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO), green satellite propulsion, and robotic systems designed to extend satellite lifespans, reduce replacement costs, and help address orbital debris.
The company also plans to expand its multidisciplinary engineering and scientific workforce from around 70 employees to approximately 150 by the end of the current financial year as it prepares for its next phase of growth.
Gambhir joins InspeCity with more than four decades of experience in strategic partnerships, policy, standards, and ecosystem development across the space, satellite, telecommunications, and media sectors. Throughout his career, he has worked extensively with government agencies, industry bodies, academic institutions, and international organisations.
Speaking on the appointment of Rajeev Gambhir, Dr Arindrajit Chowdhury, CEO of InspeCity, said, “As we enter the next stage of the Company’s journey, we are strengthening our strategic leadership to build on the technology foundation we have established over the past few years. Rajeev brings an exceptional combination of commercial leadership, strategic engagement, and ecosystem experience that will support Inspecity’s long-term ambitions.”
Commenting on his joining, Rajeev Gambhir said, “The space sector is approaching an important transition, where long-term value will increasingly be created by companies that enable safe, reliable and sustained operations in orbit. I believe InspeCity has a clear long-term vision, a strong technology foundation, and the ambition to play a significant role in this next phase of the global space economy. I look forward to working with governments, customers, partners and the wider ecosystem to translate that vision into enduring commercial and strategic outcomes that help build that future.”
