Where Satellite Meets Terrestrial Telecoms
Connected Britain asks:
How do we deliver national gigabit infrastructure?
Satellite Live asks:
How do Non-Terrestrial Networks complement the UK and European connectivity ecosystem?
The Premier Forum for Satellite & Terrestrial Convergence
The satellite connectivity ecosystem has shifted from trials to live commercial operation. From Direct-to-Device (D2D) and Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations to critical government communications, satellite is no longer an isolated sector—it is a core component of mainstream telecommunications.
Satellite Live brings together satellite operators, mobile network operators (MNOs), regulators, enterprise buyers, and government stakeholders. Running over two dedicated days alongside Connected Britain at ExCeL London, Satellite Live features its own exhibition floor and a structured two-day conference programme designed to address the key commercial, regulatory, and technical realities of hybrid connectivity.
Two-Day Conference Programme
Day 1: Regulation, Policy & Market Dynamics
Addressing the UK & European regulatory landscape (including Ofcom D2D frameworks and EU spectrum policy), government procurement, rural coverage solutions, multi-vendor architectures, and ground station infrastructure.
Day 2: Technology, Enterprise & Geopolitics
Focusing on 3GPP Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) standards in production, enterprise SD-WAN/SASE integration, managed satellite connectivity, spectrum sovereignty, and commercial wholesale models.
6 Core Themes
1. Regulatory Frameworks
Analyzing how mass-market Direct-to-Device (D2D) regulations impact spectrum, device architectures, and licensing in practice.
2. Multi-Vendor Ecosystems
Evaluating multi-operator strategies, joint ventures, LEO constellations, and open-access ground stations.
3. Universal Coverage Policy
Positioning satellite as the primary infrastructure solution for hard-to-reach premises and rural connectivity mandates.
4. Enterprise & Government
Connecting satellite vendors with defense, public sector, and enterprise managed connectivity procurement teams.
5. Sovereignty & Geopolitics
Addressing European spectrum politics, sovereign constellations, satellite finance, and regional regulatory convergence.
6. 3GPP NTN Standardization
Understanding standard 3GPP NTN protocols, chipsets, and devices operating in active production environments.
