Space tech is booming.
How will telcos integrate satellite services into their strategy?
Satellite communications are rapidly becoming a critical part of terrestrial digital infrastructure.
Low-Earth orbit (LEO) broadband, mega constellations and direct‑to‑device (D2D) satellite connectivity – 5G from space – are moving quickly into the mainstream. As a result, the market landscape is shifting, creating new revenue pools.
Telecoms operators (telcos) that integrate satellite services into their strategies will be best placed to capture these opportunities.
Analysys Mason supports the telco ecosystem in making satellite–terrestrial integration decisions, from strategy through to execution, including non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), D2D, network economics, stakeholder alignment and spectrum allocation. Our insights help clients capture value in a rapidly evolving market.
Partner, expert in space and satelliteSatellite communication technologies are becoming mainstream and evolving faster than many operators expected. For most telcos, strategic intent is still lacking – having a clear, joined‑up view of the role of space in future telecoms networks is now critical.
