“The most important thing we’re doing is providing governments and enterprises with a truly sovereign alternative to legacy infrastructure — not just more encryption, but a physical network they can control. What we call the Outernet is a mesh of satellites with inter-satellite links and ground stations that gives entities complete command over how and where their data travels.”

Q-KON, a leading provider of satellite solutions and services, and Outernet provider Rivada Space Networks have signed an MoU to provide next-generation connectivity to power network expansion and digital transformation across Africa and beyond.

As data sovereignty, infrastructure resilience and trusted communications take centre stage in the Middle East at CABSAT, CCO Ronald van der Breggen speaks about how the company’s Outernet architecture fits into the regional landscape, where it differs from consumer LEO constellations, and why it sees itself not as a competitor to terrestrial telcos, but their most resilient ally.

Rivada Space Networks has announced a new partnership with Pulsar International (Pulsar), to enable secure connectivity for customers in commercial maritime, Agri-tech, enterprise and government markets. Rivada has now lined up over $US16 billion of business globally for its unique LEO network.

Michael Abad-Santos, CEO of Rivada Select Services, a dedicated office established to serve the specialized needs of U.S. government and defense organizations, and civilian agencies, discusses how Rivada’s Outernet is designed by utilizing the best communications components in a unique way to create unmatched privacy, security, and speed.

Rivada Space Networks has expanded its EMEA Team with the appointment of Mustafa Afifi as Sales Director for the Middle East region. Mr. Afifi will focus on sectors including Telcos. Regional Satellite Operators and Satellite Resellers/Integrators, providing the most demanding enterprise and government customers with Rivada’s highly secure, high-bandwidth, global connectivity network.

Rivada Space Networks today announced it has secured market access to its Outernet constellation in 33 countries and every continent, with Belgium, the Czech Republic, Sweden, and Costa Rica among the latest nations to soon offer next-generation communications capabilities.

Joe Maguire, Board Member of Rivada Select Services and former Acting Director of National Intelligence, Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, Commander of Naval Special Warfare Command, and Vice Admiral of the U.S. Navy and Commander of the Navy SEALs.

There’s a growing recognition that governments and large enterprises need alternative paths of connectivity, Rivada Space Networks CEO Declan Ganley says. In a recent conversation with Via Satellite, Ganley says Rivada’s “time has come” as recent undersea cable attacks in the Baltic Sea and off the coast of Taiwan highlight the need for data sovereignty and data resiliency.
