Spinlaunch gets package to 200,000 feet where rocket takes over and accelerates it to 17,500 mph.

No mention in the excerpt of any rocket to assist in attaining orbital velocity - should have been highlighted in the FIRST PARAGRAPH - but that is the only scenario I can imagine having even a chance of working.

Actually, third sentence has it:

"The concept requires no onboard fuel, so there’s no danger of explosions, and since it’s completely electrical, it offers a sustainable solution that doesn’t pollute the environment."

So, no idea how they expect these packages to stay in orbit, unless something already in orbit is zooming by with a net?

Check Wikipedia for rocket details.

Yeah: A net that would instantly vaporize as if struck by a meteor as soon as it "caught" the projectile.
