Delivering connectivity across a wide range of sectors, the company has seen the industry from many angles and is well placed to discuss the market’s evolution in the Eastern world.

Q&A 10
Question: What were KT SAT’s latest achievements, and how were they delivered? KT SAT: KT SAT aims to be a global provider of multi-orbit satellite connectivity services from GEO to NGSO. KT SAT finished an International Telecommunications Union (ITU) filing for a LEO Constellation along with a technical constellation design. Also, KT SAT made an investment in Mangata Networks, a US-based start-up that plans to provide MEO satellite service. KT SAT expects its service will be more stable and reliable when it does business using multiple orbits. One of our most recent achievements is the launch of our space data service, providing Earth observation imagery, video, and analytics data through an AI-powered geospatial analytic platform. KT SAT plans to first tap into the domestic market to formulate customer use cases, with the aim to expand its service to the global market by focusing on creating value-added services in data analytics and applications, areas that have great potential for future growth.
