Eutelsat Americas aligns satellite names with Eutelsat brand Mexico, Paris, 21 May, 2014 - Eutelsat Americas (formerly Satmex), an subsidiary of Eutelsat Communications (NYSE Euronext Paris: ETL) is is aligning the names of current and future satellites to reflect Eutelsat’s strategy of operating under a single brand. From May 21, each satellite will follow the Eutelsat pattern of a number reflecting its orbital position and a letter indicating its order of arrival at that position. This logic will enable Eutelsat Americas’ community of users to identify where a satellite is located in geostationary orbit (a key metric in the satellite sector) and its chronology at the orbital position where it is located. Please see the table below for the specifics of former and new names: Former Name New Name Satmex 5 EUTELSAT 115 West A Satmex 6 EUTELSAT 113 West A Satmex 8 EUTELSAT 117 West A Satmex 7 (future satellite) EUTELSAT 115 West B Satmex 9 (future satellite) EUTELSAT 117 West B Patricio Northland, CEO of Eutelsat Americas, said: “With the renaming of our satellites we are now fully aligned with the Eutelsat brand and integrated into a global team with a one company operating philosophy. The Eutelsat name stands for longstanding experience, innovation and technical excellence and we are proud to add our expertise to these features.” About Eutelsat Communications Established in 1977, Eutelsat Communications (NYSE Euronext Paris: ETL, ISIN code: FR0010221234) is one of the world's leading and most experienced operators of communications satellites. The company provides capacity on 36 satellites to clients that include broadcasters and broadcasting associations, pay-TV operators, video, data and Internet service providers, enterprises and government agencies.

The Space Sector in 2014 and Beyond
The Space Economy at a Glance 2014 © OECD 2014 Chapter 1 The space sector in 2014 and beyond Chapter 1 reviews major trends in the space sector. It first provides a review of the “space economy” in 2014. It then focuses on an original analysis of global value chains in the space sector, including a spotlight on fifty years of European space co-operation. The chapter also looks at new dynamics in the sector, which may impact incumbents and new entrants, with a focus on innovation in industrial processes and the development of small satellites. 15 1. THE SPACE SECTOR IN 2014 AND BEYOND Defining the “space economy” in 2014 Straddling the defence and aerospace industries, the space sector has for decades been a relatively discrete sector, developed to serve strategic objectives in many OECD and non-OECD economies, with security applications, science and space exploration. The space sector, like many other high-tech sensitive domains, is now attracting much more attention around the world, as governments and private investors seek new sources of economic growth and innovation. The “space economy” has become an intriguing domain to examine, bringing interesting innovation capacities as well as new commercial opportunities. Over the past decade, the number of public and private actors involved in space activities worldwide has increased, spurring even further the development of the nascent space economy. Despite strong headwinds in many related sectors (e.g. defence), the space sector overall has not been significantly affected by the world economic crisis. It remains a strategic sector for many countries, relatively sheltered because of national imperatives (e.g.

Scientific Research for the Mexican Satellite System
SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH FOR THE MEXICAN SATELLITE SYSTEM Cirilo G. León Vega / [email protected] Cuauhtémoc León Puertos /[email protected] Chadwick Carreto Arellano / [email protected] ABSTRACT A technology Management Model for the Mexican Satellite System, based on concepts from different writers is proposed such as: management and technology management. This latter concept involves creation, dissemination, use and transfer of technology. At the next step a Systemic Planning Model for the Mexican Satellite System, is proposed, in order to contribute to technological development. The Stages of Systemic Planning Model for the Mexican Satellite System are: 1 International analysis, 2 Satellite system .analysis, 3. Diagnosis of, national satellite system using the SWOT, 4.. Formulation and answer research questions 5. Proposed solution 6.Mission, vision, values and strategic objectives of the proposal, 7.Strategies, using SWOT: SO, ST, WO and WT combinations, 8. Action plan 9. Technological feasibility, 10.Technological development. From the analysis and diagnosis, it was found that one of the great strengths in our country is scientific research, including space developed since the 1940s, but it is isolated. It is proposed to found humanist satellite companies, to promote and preserve ecology consisting of self-financing, public, mixed or private initiative, that systemically integrates basic and applied scientific research, among other companies which are engaged in the design, construction and launch of satellites with the purpose of contributing to the technological development to provide an efficient, fast, safe and cheap service to meet the demands of domestic and international users. The problem is that, in Mexico as in most developing nations, scientific research is not a systemically integrated industry.
