Good day!

I sincerely apologize if this question isn't right for the UK-focused group. I couldn't find a bigger community of HAB enthusiasts otherwise.

I am looking for a launch opportunity for my team's payload on a HAB/picoballoon somewhere from India (Southern India would be favorable for logistical purpose), or Canada (either will work, but India would be preferred). Is anyone here a part of such a team or know such a team? Please feel free to reply to this post or throw me a message on my LinkedIn (https://ca.linkedin.com/in/sayed-belal-mudassar)!

The payload would weigh less than a kg, and the mass can be reduced further to a few grams by removing some of the secondary functionalities and only keeping the essential purpose (we could do this, ie. cutting down mass, if the launch is on a picoballoon). 

Thanking you all a lot and I again apologize if this place isn't the right one,

Hi Sayed! 
I am from Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology, Thiruvananthapuram. We have also got a ballooning project (Urdhvam, under our Aero Club) and here we have an excellent balloon launching facility at Ponmudi, Thiruvananthapuram district.
Would love to collaborate or be of help.
Regards,
Ekashman Tiwari
