è Flexibility & diversity

One solution will not fit all

Commercial satellites have a vital role to play in Space Communicationsè Answering the need for high data rates and communications

Operators are embracing innovationè We need to get smart in our designs and optimisation of resources

Today’s expectations have changed and are increasingly demandingè We must deliver as an industryè As the world becomes more outward looking, the demands will only increase opportunities &

challenges.

Partnerships: è The previously distinct lines between military, science & commercial technologies are blurring. è The opportunities to share & pool capacity & resources is becoming more attractive

Software will play an ever more critical role.

The ground segment link in the system is key.

Time to market & Cost are critical elements that Operators play a key role in
