Monday 26 February

The Importance of Close Partnerships Between Satellite and Telecoms

Speaker: Adam Godwin, Telstra
Time: 12:30

Close partnerships between the telecoms and satellite industries enable many key technologies to flourish. This talk highlights the close partnership that has been forged between Telstra and SES, and looks at the way these partnerships can be established and nurtured, the way they complement each other, how they enable co-selling to enterprise, government, and carriers, and the ways in which they can be leveraged to grow SD-WAN options, IoT opportunities, and much more in the years to come.

Bridging the Digital Divide with Multi-Orbit Solutions

Speaker: Olivier Gommes, Marlink
Time: 14:30

What is the current state of the industry? Olivier Gommes will provide a compelling overview, including the types of satellites in orbit, applications, and the major players. He will focus on the current challenges the industry faces, such as the increasing amount of space debris and the need for better cybersecurity measures, and conclude by examining potential future developments, including the launch of large constellations of small satellites and direct-to-handset connectivity.

The Benefits & Opportunities of Multi-Orbit Solutions

Speaker: Christophe Fondin, SES
Time: 16:30

The future of the satellite industry is multi-orbit, multi-operator, and more dynamic than ever before. SES has long expertise in GEO, and is unlocking previously untouchable use cases with MEO. This presentation will showcase how it is partnering with other satellite operators to bring LEO into the portfolio, and it will highlight how the combination of all three enables whole new applications and opportunities for many industries.

Tuesday 27 February

Seamless and Always-On Connectivity for Vehicles Around the Globe

Speaker: Katrin Bacic, UNIO
Time: 10:30

In today's dynamic landscape, companies are responding to the rising demand for enhanced connectivity and automation. Powering seamless and always-on connectivity by bridging space and 5G networks will help businesses to leverage these technologies for digital services and commercial vehicle applications, including real-time tracking, predictive maintenance, and fleet management systems.

Private 5G Networks, Edge, and Live Use Cases for the Offshore Market

Speaker: Frode Støldal, Tampnet
Time: 12:30

Discover the latest developments in offshore connectivity, and how Tampnet’s partnership with SES further expands capabilities for offshore operators to provide valuable backhaul solutions in the most remote offshore locations, supporting edge compute and onsite Private 5G Networks. He will also provide insights into recent projects where asset owners have achieved complete coverage of operational areas to implement the latest IoT sensors, remote collaboration tools, and in-field data access solutions.

Multi-Orbit Satellite Services - The Next Level

Speaker: Guido Neumann, AXESS
Time: 14:30

The speed of change in the satellite industry is accelerating all the time. This presentation examines the different multi-orbit services (O3b mPOWER and GEO) and their use cases in the mining sector, few of which existed even a few years ago. It will look in detail at the advantages of the multi-orbit approach, the pros and cons of different orbits, and examine some likely future multi-orbit setups for different verticals.

How Next-Gen Satellite Enables Digital Transformations

Speaker: Karl Horne, SES
Time: 16:30

Find out why next-generation satellite-enabled networks are set to play a critical role in enterprises’ and governments’ global digital transformations. Digital transformation depends on new tools that leverage IoT, big data and AI to better manage assets, boost productivity, and improve the customer experience. These tools, in turn, depend on an ecosystem of cloud and edge compute resources underpinned by a reliable, secure network infrastructure. Satellite connectivity plays an essential role in that ecosystem, providing the reach and reliability needed to extend digital transformations to any location and any industry.
