    SatShow 2026: Jeffrey Hill, Chairman of SatShow, on What’s Next for the Space and Satellite Industry 

    As SATShow 2026 approaches, the satellite industry is entering a new era not only defined by rapid technological evolution but by a pivotal reckoning with long-term financial sustainability. The industry is competing, building, and proving itself like never before as multi-orbit architectures mature, direct-to-device services expand, and commercial players reshape how the market is evaluated. In this episode of the Satellite World Briefing, Jeffrey Hill, Chairman of the Satellite Show, gives listeners a sneak peek at what to expect at this year’s event. Hill walks us through the key trends that are dominating the industry, like multi-orbit versus LEO, sovereign systems, protected SATCOM on the government and military side, and the evolving use cases for commercial connectivity. He also shares how AI is subtly becoming embedded into satellite operations and why this year’s Forum represents a shift in the way the industry tells its own story.

    Hybrid Models for the Future of Media Distribution: Combining Satellite Scale with IP Resiliency

    In the second episode of  Satellite World Briefing’s new media mini-series, Ruben Calzadilla, Senior Technical Advisor at SES, and Dr. Ciro Noronha, President of the RIST Forum and Chief Technology Officer at Cobalt Digital, join host Lucas Hunsicker to discuss the advantages of hybrid satellite and IP delivery, why public internet alone cannot ensure reliability, and how broadcasters can future-proof content distribution with backward-compatible methods. As Calzadilla said: “Satellite handles scale, internet ensures resiliency, and together, they form a model that’s both efficient and future-proof.”

    How Cell Towers in Space Are Transforming Connectivity

    “If you are truly going to connect the unconnected …you need to make sure every single device on Earth works seamlessly with a satellite in orbit.” – Dan Dooley, Lynk Global Chief Commercial Officer That was once considered a wild idea, but today, it's the foundation of one of the fastest-moving innovations in telecom. In this episode, we speak with Dan Dooley, Chief Commercial Officer of Lynk Global, to explore how their “cell tower in space” technology is not just technically possible but already being deployed with mobile network operators worldwide from the remote plains of South Africa to the north of Canada to the isolated islands of Palau. Lynk is pioneering direct-to-device satellite connectivity that integrates effortlessly with existing mobile infrastructure - no new phones, apps, or hardware required. We discuss how Lynk's regenerative payload design makes its satellites behave like roaming partners for MNOs, enabling easy network extension into hard-to-reach areas without additional ground infrastructure. From rural connectivity and disaster recovery to IoT and 2G sunset strategies, Dan breaks down why this is a transformational leap for mobile operators. Whether you're looking to reach new markets, improve service resilience, or unlock latent revenue from underutilized spectrum, this conversation shows why direct-to-device satellite is no longer the future—it’s the now.

    What’s Next for In-Flight Connectivity and Passenger Expectations Part 1

    In both business and commercial aviation, seamless inflight connectivity (IFC) is becoming an expectation rather than luxury. In this episode of the Satellite World Briefing, our host discussed the evolving landscape of IFC with Valour Consultancy Co-Founders & Senior Consultants Craig Foster and Daniel Welch. With the Aircraft Interiors Expo (AIX) conference just around the corner, Foster and Welch dove into the latest trends shaping the industry, ranging from the impact of emerging technologies like next-generation air-to-ground and satellite networks to shifting passenger expectations. They also discussed how airlines and business aviation operators are adapting to meet the growing demand for connectivity, the role of loyalty programs in justifying IFC investments, and how advanced satellite solutions are democratizing high-speed connectivity for smaller aircrafts globally.
