#SilverneedleVentures portfolio company #DhruvaSpace took Indian #SpaceInfrastructure to Paris this September. Its leadership attended the International Space Summit at the Grand Palais and #WSBW2026, where CEO Sanjay Nekkanti spoke on the future of space infrastructure.
The company drew strong interest from partners and customers, as the #IndiaFranceYearOfInnovation brings both ecosystems closer.
#SilverneedleVentures portfolio company #MakersHive is changing who gets access to advanced #Prosthetics. Its #KalArm® is India's first fully functional bionic hand, built to match what imported devices offer at a price people in developing markets can actually afford.
It reads the wearer's muscle signals, adapts to how each person grips, and is fitted and finished to the individual rather than issued off a shelf.
Backed by 14 IPRs, it shows that world-class #AssistiveTech can be designed and built in India, for the millions who have been priced out of it.

Recognition that reflects what is being built.

A significant moment for India’s growing #SpaceTech ecosystem as Dhruva Space, a Silverneedle Ventures portfolio company, joined an interaction with Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and fellow Indian Space-Tech builders, facilitated by #INSPACe.
#ProjectGarud supported by RDIF, Ground Station hardware, and AstraView commercial satellite imagery.
The interaction also brought focus to a larger ambition: thinking beyond individual missions and building solutions that create impact across sectors.
As India’s #Space economy expands, we are excited to see Dhruva Space building the infrastructure and capabilities to take #IndianInnovation to the world.

Compliance gets harder as organisations grow. Lawcubator is making sure it doesn’t have to.
Workplace compliance spans policies, training, employee grievances, reporting and resolution, and managing these through disconnected processes creates unnecessary complexity.
From PoSH, DEI, data protection and ESG compliance to learning, grievance redressal, query resolution and real-time analytics, the platform is designed to help organisations manage workplace legal and HR compliance end to end.
Part of the #SilverneedleVentures portfolio, Lawcubator is using technology to make an increasingly complex enterprise function simpler to manage.
