Global AKAR
Planned large ground network for low-orbit satellites that runs Skynopy's software on Eutelsat's worldwide ground infrastructure.
Why it matters
Reusing existing teleports instead of building new ones could quickly give European satellite operators a large, sovereign download network.
How the technology works
Eutelsat contributes its global ground sites and Skynopy its software-defined orchestration and modems, to serve Earth observation, in-orbit services and telecom customers.
