Industry Experts Predict The Future of the Satellite Industry

With rapid development of new technologies and a colossal increase in mobile devices and internet usage, there’s a new pressure on connectivity and a question mark over the future role of satellite.
We ran a survey to take stock of the current industry. Everyone from C-level Satellite operators to end-users from maritime, oil and gas and the aviation industry responded. The results are in, here are your top 7 predictions:
  1. Over the next 5 years, the satellite industry will see a huge amount of change
Pressure from new technologies LEO and HTS will change the landscape of the industry a great deal. While many agree that innovation will enable entry into new markets, it’s yet to be seen whether the major players will remain the same, or if new providers will disrupt.

Raising the VSAT Opportunity


These days tremendous buzz surrounds the satellite industry. I’m not talking just about all of global billionaires looking to launch “micro satellites” in the coming years. Excitement exists in the traditional satellite market as well, with opportunity abundant for those that step forward as leaders.
Market demand is high, next generation satellites are being launched and the talk of satellite going mainstream is as hot as ever. Let’s examine each of these further.

An Internet of Things World: Where does Satellite fit in?

We live in the era where organizations and people want 24/7 always-on connectivity. The Internet of Things (IoT) will aim to make this a reality, and readily transform companies along with the way they do business. It is the next generation of internet connectivity, and it could have far reaching consequences for just about everything.-MARK HOLMES

One of the big buzz terms at recent satellite events has been the Internet of Things (IoT), where we live in an uber-connected world full of connected devices which can pretty much track everything man and machine do as billions of devices talk to each other. 

While IoT is great news for the wireless industry, it could also offer some interesting new growth opportunities for satellite companies as they look to secure a role in this hyper-connected state of affairs.
