LEOS, COVID-19, RISK-TAKING
THE ROAD AHEAD FOR ASIA’S OPERATORS

The year 2020 has led to industry-changing developments as well as hastened the industry’s evolution whether through M&As, bankruptcies or large funding rounds for players that offer unique long-term value. At the same time, plans to increase capacity as well as lower price offers continue to impact an already highly competitive market landscape. To add to the competitive dynamics, new programs such as VHTS and NGEO systems that will disrupt the ecosystem need to be contended with. In light of these developments, regional and national operators will need to craft and/or update their go-to-market strategies.

The panel will discuss the following:

• How do you see the Asian market taking shape in 2021 and beyond?
• Are there strategic adjustments to be made in light of the COVID-19 impact, entrance of LEOs and other market developments?
• What’s ahead in terms of risk-taking and next-generation program deployment?
