to keep updated with programme developments or to reserve your place, please visit: www.globalmilsatcom.com Global MilSatCom Community #GlobalMilSatCom @SMiGroupDefence Dear Industry Colleagues,

On behalf of SES Networks, I am delighted to once again welcome you all to SMi Group’s annual Global MilSatCom conference and exhibition, the prominent military satellite event in its 20th edition.

The resilience in space, readiness matched with the interoperability and ability to integrate new technologies quickly and efficiently are the major challenges ahead for the national defence and security agencies. The critical services that satellites enable, including communications, connectivity, intelligence gathering, remote sensing and navigation, or space situational awareness are the backbone for the defence and national security operations, and our industry keeps on evolving, continually adapting rapid technological advances and launching innovative solutions to meet the dynamic challenges we face currently and the emerging threats of the future.

In 2018, we are excited about increasing focus on applications-driven, secure milsatcom solutions via SES Networks’s unique combination of GEO and MEO satellites; the start of new era in global cloud-scale connectivity and high power data services with the launch of O3b mPOWER, which will enable a new realm of secure global connectivity applications with high throughput and fiber-like performance. These are just some examples of how we can respond to the changing industry requirements with new ideas and ever evolving solutions.

This conference is an ideal forum to raise questions, to share the experience and knowledge among the decision makers from Government and Military, as well as leading international industry professionals.

Please join us, network and learn more about new breakthroughs in the security and defence arena.

I look forward to seeing you at the conference and the SES Networks Networking Reception.

Yours faithfully, Gerard Donelan, Vice-President Defence & Security, SES Networks
