ABS & SpaceBridge Forge Strategic Alliance to Revolutionise Satellite Connectivity Across EMEA
The partnership promises to expand managed data services, delivering scalable solutions for enterprises, governments, and telecom providers.
A Powerful Collaboration for Next-Gen Connectivity
In a move set to transform satellite-enabled services across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), ABS (‘Agility Beyond Space’) and SpaceBridge announced their intent to collaborate on next-generation managed data solutions. The alliance, unveiled at a key industry event in Dubai, aims to combine ABS’s global satellite reach with SpaceBridge’s cutting-edge VSAT and network optimisation technologies.
What’s Driving the Partnership?
Expanding Critical Services: The collaboration will enhance broadband, internet trunking, and enterprise-grade connectivity for Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), governments, and businesses.
Innovation in Scalability: By integrating SpaceBridge’s ASAT™ WaveSwitch™ and ESTELLA platforms with ABS’s global fleet, the partnership seeks to deliver faster, more flexible, and cost-efficient satellite solutions.
Meeting Rising Demand: With connectivity needs surging across emerging markets, this alliance ensures reliable, high-performance networks where they’re needed most.
Leadership Perspectives
“This partnership underscores our commitment to delivering agile, scalable solutions through strategic collaborations,” said Mark Rigolle, CEO of ABS. “By working with SpaceBridge, we can enhance our managed services and better serve EMEA’s evolving connectivity demands.”
“Our technology is built to maximise efficiency and performance in satellite networks,” added David Gelerman, President & CEO of SpaceBridge. “Teaming up with ABS allows us to bring these innovations to a broader audience, bridging connectivity gaps in high-growth regions.”
What’s Next for the Alliance?
The companies are actively exploring new service models to optimise coverage, performance, and affordability. With ABS’s global satellite footprint (covering 93% of the world’s population) and SpaceBridge’s three decades of network expertise, this partnership is poised to redefine satellite communications in EMEA.
