India and Luxembourg have agreed to strengthen ties in science, technology, and space exploration. In a New Delhi meeting, Science Minister Jitendra Singh and Luxembourg's Ambassador Christian Biever discussed ways to promote Indian space start-ups in European markets.

The focus was on joint work in cybersecurity, quantum tech, and artificial intelligence. Singh noted India's global rank among the top three in scientific publications and startup activity, and said the Chandrayaan-3 mission made India a hub for space manufacturing. He also mentioned that two Luxembourg satellites have been launched on India's PSLV rocket.
Luxembourg has positioned itself as a European gateway for space mining and satellite services, making it a strategic partner for India's expanding private space sector. The partnership builds on a 2016 bilateral agreement on space cooperation. For Indian space start-ups, access to Luxembourg's regulatory framework and funding networks could open European and African markets. The next milestone to watch is any joint mission or commercial launch announced under this renewed framework.
