ReOrbit has entered into an agreement with Uzma Berhad in relation to a GEO communications satellite project.

As the world increasingly relies on Earth Observation (EO) data, efficient movement of it has never been more important. The traditional space industry viewed delays in EO data movement as a manageable aspect of operations, choosing to adapt to their presence. Data bottlenecks in space are the result of various things such as congested ground stations, outdated satellite technology and more (in an earlier article on the value chain behind EO, we have started exploring these challenges), At their worst, these delays can hold up critical information when it’s needed most. But what if there were a better way?

ReOrbit has successfully completed the Preliminary Design Review phase with the European Space Agency for its UKKO Mission.

The global space sector is experiencing exceptionally strong growth driven by new supply and demand drivers, disruptive innovations and transformational business models. In a more open, competitive and collaborative environment, digital technologies have emerged as an essential growth lever for the space industry, as per other major industries, such as automotive and aeronautics. Hardware has become increasingly commoditised and less differentiated, with the focus being shifted to software.

Today, space technology is becoming a growing enabler of national security and a key ingredient in shaping global socio-economic trends. To explore the increased role of space technology in this context, we sat down with Tuija Karanko, Secretary General of PIA, who was recently appointed as Vice Chair of the NATO Industrial Advisory Group. Here's a deep dive into our conversation.
