'We are building a space-based surveillance and intelligence platform for space. The pitch was good.

AI-driven industrial solutions also featured prominently. Mugesh, Co-Founder of Goat Robotics, said, 'In Goat Robotics, we build an AI-enabled autonomous mobile robot platform where we can handle the material movement on the industrial surface.
