The world’s media organizations remain locked in an intense battle for viewers and subscribers. With streaming providers and over-the-top TV services joining linear cable television companies in a fragmented, competitive, and oversaturated marketplace, the ability to survive and thrive requires massive investments in the development and production of content that will capture and retain the
Africa is among the most complex environments for any communications service provider seeking to deliver high-quality and consistently available connectivity to the people who need it. Regional factors and geographical realities contribute to the difficulties of delivering uninterrupted, high-speed communications on par with what is commonplace across most of the rest of the world.

As has been the trend in other industries, virtualizing network functions promises to transform the satellite industry. Intelsat and Kratos are leading the charge.
Intelsat’s SmartEdge terminal incorporates Kratos’s OpenSpace technology which is moving us towards our vision of network virtualization and enabling us to conquer another industry first by bringing a virtualized modem into our
Software is taking over. In all corners of the world, physical hardware systems are being replaced by cloud technologies and agile software defined networks (SDN) with flexible architectures and a greater ability to interoperate with other systems and dynamically respond to changing user requirements.
Few industries are not engaging in some form of digital transformation.
A Thriving Economy in Orbit Brings Leaders in Space Sustainability to the Forefront
Space exploration has had an enormously positive effect on society, with its impact growing exponentially since NASA sent the first men to the moon in 1969 – an event that Intelsat’s Early Bird satellite played a critical role in bringing to the world.
