This final webinar of the GVF-CBN series for 2022 attracted a lot of attention with 400 people registered.

An hour of energetic, moderated, dialogue between two panellists from the space segment - the satellite operators Eutelsat and Intelsat - and two from the ground segment - Gilat Satellite Networks and SpaceBridge - proved to be both entertaining and highly informative on a topic that is high on the agenda right across the entire telecommunications sector.

It was noted that in bringing forth the realisation of 5G the satellite industry will be committing to significant CAPEX and in order to more reliably realise a return on its investments the industry will be looking to leverage a more advantageous position in the value chain. 

The panellists covered many topics and answered many questions from the audience revealing some quite contrasting views as to whether or not, in a comparison of 5G and GEO, and 5G and NGSO, the orbit matters. These views are both interesting and immediately topical.

If you missed the live webcast you haven’t missed out. You can still enjoy the dialogue by watching the recording here.
