Gadhadar Reddy: From failing too many times to building one of India's most successful space startup

Gadhadar Reddy’s ambitious dream of being the first human on Mars led him to research carbon nanotubes to make sustainable light spacecrafts, a journey that culminated in the birth of NoPo Nanotechnologies.

This is a guy who named his company NoPo which stands for NOT POSSIBLE because of the number of times he had to hear it from people when he approached with his ideas! Guess what? His startup makes the best space-grade carbon nanotubes on the PLANET! “It has been my childhood dream,” Gadhadar says of his quest to someday set foot on the red planet.

NoPo Nanotechnologies manufactures high quality and affordable carbon nanotubes that are being tested by ISRO for its efficacy as a coating on spacecraft
