Vodafone Cook Islands and Rivada have signed an MoU to provide next-generation telecoms connectivity, powering network expansion and digital transformation in the Oceania region and beyond, harnessing Rivada’s Outernet to deploy resilient connectivity for enterprises and government customers looking for scalable and secure solutions for their expanding networks.

Rivada Space Networks has expanded its Asia Pacific Team with the appointment of satellite industry veteran Chiun Maw Teo as Sales Director APAC. Mr. Teo will be based in Singapore and will focus on the telecoms sector, providing the most demanding enterprise and government customers with Rivada’s highly secure, high-bandwidth, global connectivity network.

Rivada Networks, Inc. today announced the formation of Rivada Select, a new wholly owned subsidiary established as a proxy organization to serve the specialized needs of U.S. government and defense customers. 

The United States Navy has put Rivada under contract to develop and deliver Virtual Network Operator capabilities over Rivada’s Outernet constellation. Under the first phase of its contract with the U.S. Navy, Rivada will engage in joint engineering cooperation with the Navy to delineate a Virtual Network architecture specifically designed to meet the Navy’s needs on the Rivada Outernet.

Rivada Space Networks and e3 Systems, a leading maritime Superyacht integrator and connectivity provider, have signed an MoU to provide innovative, fast, secure and seamless communications for the Superyacht sector. Rivada has now lined up more than US$13 billion of business globally for its unique LEO network.

Rivada has now secured market access for its Outernet constellation across the Nordic region, including Finland, Sweden and Denmark, bringing the total number of countries with market access to 20. Success in obtaining the national rights to establish and operate a new satellite communications network in low earth orbit is important for the Nordic region particularly in the light of increasing attacks on shared critical infrastructure.

Rivada has in the last year secured market access for its Outernet constellation in 18 countries and on every continent. These countries include U.K., Netherlands, Denmark, Finland, Colombia, Namibia, and more are in the pipeline.

Colt Technology Services, a global digital infrastructure company, is partnering with Rivada Space Networks to provide a unique next generation connectivity network with the necessary speed, security and performance to drive digital innovation and transformation.
