Accessing the Internet, whenever you want, wherever you are, wherever you’re going to, and however you’re getting there, with fast broadband data speeds facilitating engagement with a myriad of applications and services, is now universal in the provision of delivery goals and user expectations of today’s communications marketplace.
The GVF-EMP Partnership has now announced the preliminary speaker line-up for its annual Connectivity event focused on addressing the technologies, themes, trends, and market dynamics of broadband mobility via satellite and other communications platforms.
Martin Jarrold, GVF Chief of International Program Development, commented that the event, the fourth in the Connectivity series, will investigate the universal connectivity ecosystem, with particular, though not exclusive, reference to the latest developments in the satellite communications marketplace which are focused around the launch of more-and-more High Throughput Satellite (HTS) payloads into orbit.
Betty Bonnardel-Azzarelli of AB5 Consulting has joined the team as a co-moderator on some of the sessions where her expertise and insight will contribute to the quality of the speaker and audience dialogue.
Four interactive panel sessions will explore: Space & Ground Segment Technologies; The Consumer, Government, Enterprise Services Connectivity Ecosystem; Mobile Connectivity, the Cloud & the Internet of Things; Developing Applications & Building the User Vertical Deployment Environment.
