Telecom Briefing Objective
After a period of some market retrenchment and major bankruptcies in the late 1990s, the satellite industry is entering a new period of complex but significant growth from a $75 billion a year market to well over $100 billion by the end of the decade. It is also an industry driven by market consolidation, shifting patterns of ownership, innovations in broadcasting, IP services and rapidly emerging defense-related applications and new hybrid service demands. So what comes next? Where are the new opportunities? What are the hidden pitfalls? What are the key innovations you need to know about in 2005 and the years that follow? IGI has recruited well known satellite leader, George Washington University Professor Joseph N. Pelton and former Dean of the International Space University to put together a panel of experts and corporate leaders to give you special insights on the most important trends in the satellite industry and governmental satellite programs. Dr. Pelton, former Director Strategic Policy at Intelsat, founder of the Arthur C. Clarke Foundation, author of 22 books in the field, a member of the Society of Satellite Professionals Hall of Fame and now Director of the Space & Advanced Communications Research Institute at GW University has assembled a team of industry insiders to provide a special briefing about all the key trends in today's dynamic market.
These sessions are specially designed for broadcasters, telecom and IT executives, strategic planners, investment bankers, governmental officials, and others needing a strategic understanding of today's global commercial and defense-related satellite systems.
Speakers are confirmed or invited from: Intelsat, Panamsat, Satellite Industry Association, Irwin Communications, Arrowhead Global Solutions, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, World Teleport Association, Defense Information Service Agency (DISA), MILSATCOM Office, FCC, Space Systems/Loral/X-tar, Venture Strategies Inc., the IGI Group and George Washington University
