Nearly 2.3 million of those are refugees, having ned to neighboring countries. Neva is 19 years old and a newlywed at a refugee camp in East Africa. She came to the camp 4 years earlier to escape the ghting in South Sudan. Neva cannot read and rst heard a Talking Bible two years ago. When she listened, she heard that they were supposed to forgive one another — a difficult task after years of ghting and hatred in her homeland. “I understood it was the Word of God, and meant to keep sin from entering my heart,” said Neva. When asked if she needed anything, Neva quietly requested this: “Would you pray to God for my husband, so he can lead his family and live as a Godly man?” A Talking Bible gives non-readers a chance to learn about God’s salvation and change their lives forever.

  • Satellite Evolution Sparks a Service Revolution
    Satellite Evolution Sparks a Service Revolution SES White Paper June 2016 The changing DNA of satellites prompts a landslide of new products and services Technology changes lives. That statement, as banal as it sounds, implies two major elements of fundamental importance. The first is the observation that technological shifts create markets, and not the other way round. The second is that faster technological evolution sparks a revolution in the services and products that are available. Markets, and the individual consumers that define them, do not presage and pronounce demands, technological breakthroughs do. Unforeseen and unforeseeable products are created by translating new technology into applications that rapidly transform entire industries, sectors, behaviors and business models. Technologies ferment the markets. And this is exactly what is happening with satellite technology today. THE OLD AND NEW SCHOOL OF THINKING For a long time the satellite business was framed by the seamless maritime and aeronautical connectivity experiences. stable and reliable coordinates of orbital positions, satellite And the terabit per second satellite is on the horizon, pushing fleets, and their spectrum and capacity. All of this was the boundaries of global connectivity to infinity. viewed, of course, in the perspective of rate cards and price points. Admittedly, in this old school of thought the orbiting SES is perfectly positioned to drive this technological real estate of satellite operators delivered fantastic results, revolution, and knows that it is not about one big idea or one transmitting thousands of TV programs reliably and in the big satellite. Technologies such as High Throughput and highest quality to millions of households and billions of terabits are not the exclusive elements of the winning people.
