Nano-satellite specialist Sky and Space Global has achieved a major milestone in proving that nano-satellites can power mobile communications.
This is another step towards the company’s ambition to open up access to communications networks for remote locations and emerging markets.
In some parts of the world, getting access to communications services like mobile phone calls, messaging and image exchange is really difficult. Actually, it can be nigh-on impossible. But providing infrastructure by conventional means is too complex and expensive in some areas – and the resulting cost of access would be way beyond the budgets of potential users of the service.
Yet it’s exactly those emerging markets and remote locations that are tricky to serve that could benefit the most from access to communications services. So instead of using conventional means, Sky and Space Global has a plan to deliver communications services through satellites.
The company has a single, clearly articulated aim: to provide affordable communication services to anyone, anywhere, anytime.
