 NASA seeks commercial feedback for future space communication networksNASA is inviting US and international companies to provide input on Earth proximity relay communication and navigation services as the agency transitions from its own satellite system to commercial solutions[1].This move aims to enhance data relay for future science missions, stimulate private investment, and ensure robust support for upcoming exploration initiatives, with commercial offerings expected as early as 2028. SpaceX launches 26 Starlink satellites, expanding global broadbandSpaceX successfully deployed 26 Starlink satellites into low Earth orbit from California on June 16. The Falcon 9 rocket’s reusable first stage landed on a droneship, and the mission further strengthens the Starlink broadband network, now exceeding 7,760 active satellites[2].This launch follows a recent milestone: the completion of SpaceX’s first-generation direct-to-cell constellation, bringing global internet coverage a step closer. China commercializes 1,000-qubit quantum control systemOn June 16, China completed the commercialization and delivery of the ez-QREngine 2.0, its first superconducting quantum computing measurement and control system designed for 1,000-qubit machines. This milestone marks a significant leap in quantum hardware capabilities, positioning China as a key player in scalable quantum computing infrastructure for research and industry[3]. Taiwan unveils quantum chip fabrication and test facilitiesAcademia Sinica has launched Taiwan’s first dedicated quantum chip fabrication and testing spaces, successfully demonstrating superconducting qubit production using eight-inch wafer equipment. These new facilities will accelerate quantum hardware development, support national research, and strengthen Taiwan’s strategic position in the global quantum technology race[4]. Gotion unveils pilot line for next-gen solid-state EV batteriesVolkswagen-backed battery manufacturer Gotion has launched its first pilot line for all-solid-state batteries, branded as “Gemstone.” These batteries promise higher energy density, improved safety, and longer driving range compared to conventional lithium-ion cells. The pilot line signals the start of small-scale production, with full-scale manufacturing targeted for 2030, advancing the global EV and energy storage revolution[5]. Cathode materials market surges amid EV and clean energy boomThe global cathode materials market is projected to grow at a 14.93 percent CAGR, driven by rising electric vehicle adoption, renewable energy projects, and advances in battery technology. U.S. manufacturers are ramping up production, focusing on nickel-rich and cobalt-free cathodes to enhance battery capacity, lifespan, and sustainability, supported by strong government incentives and industry innovation[6]. India relaxes SEZ norms to boost semiconductor manufacturingIndia has revised its Special Economic Zones (SEZ) rules to promote domestic semiconductor and electronics manufacturing. Key reforms include reducing the minimum land requirement for SEZs from 50 to 10 hectares and allowing domestic sales after paying duties. These changes aim to attract capital-intensive investments, reduce import dependence, and strengthen India’s high-tech manufacturing ecosystem[7].For in-depth conversations with entrepreneurs, investors, industry leaders and other stakeholders contributing to India’s deep tech and climate tech ecosystems, do check out my India Tech Report: In Conversation podcast.
