KT SAT, Korea’s national satellite communications services provider, and Rivada Space Networks have signed an MoU to provide next-generation connectivity for Enterprise and Government customers, enabling expansion in Asia Pacific and beyond.

Rivada Space Networks has announced a series of new partners in the Asia Pacific region. Rivada has now lined up over $US9 billion of business globally for its unique LEO network.

MEF is a global industry association whose membership represents top service and technology providers across telecommunications and data services. Helping connectivity providers work together efficiently is one of the main goals of MEF.

Constellations spoke with executives from Rivada Space Networks about building satellite infrastructure that telcos can access. Declan Ganley, CEO, and Konrad Nieradka, Vice President of Product Development, discussed the shifting relationship between telecom and satcom, building a laser-mesh OuterNET and creating the first multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) network in LEO.

In this podcast, Declan and Salem discuss the Outernet’s unique offering, how data sovereignty and residency can help government customers, and how AWS is being used to meet the diverse needs of Rivada’s customers.

Soaring demand for backup connectivity after subsea cables were cut in the Red Sea is helping push Rivada Space Networks closer to fully financing its $2.4 billion constellation plans, according to CEO Declan Ganley.

Rivada’s LEO constellation, the Outernet, will be the world’s first single, global, ubiquitous communications network, said Declan Ganley, CEO. “True global wireless connectivity will be possible for the first time. Our new look reflects the new era that the Outernet will help usher in.”

On this Constellations Podcast hear about a communications network that does not have to touch the Internet. Declan Ganley, CEO of Rivada and Konrad Nieradka, Vice President of Product Management of Rivada discuss connected communications with a laser mesh network in space and how standards like Carrier Ethernet are shaping the future of enterprise communications.

With its unique architecture, Rivada enables a truly private network that doesn’t depend on gateways. At the GovSatCom’24 in Luxembourg, our VP of Sales, Joe Apa, gave insights into the Outernet.
