Satellite summit at CABSAT 2015 expanded

GVF Satellite Hub Summit expanded for CABSAT 2015 in Dubai with new features and topics

Satellite summit at CABSAT 2015 expanded

The GVF MENASAT Summit @ CABSAT has been an embedded, key, added-value, feature of the annual CABSAT exhibition for many years, and 2015 will continue the complementary relationship between exhibition and summit programme.

Now, following on from the most recent success of the GVF MENASAT Summit series, in 2014, GVF and CABSAT have proudly announced a dedicated satellite hub summit as a part of the CABSAT conference. In fact, 2015 brings expanded value from the event with a brand new format, and new and innovative content, as the GVF Satellite Hub Summit @ CABSAT.

The GVF Satellite Hub Summit will focus on satellite and satellite communications, challenges and solutions, and will deliver more specific content to support the region’s satellite providers and attract more regional telco’s to participate in CABSAT – encouraging more partnerships between them, and the region’s content creators, managers and distribution platforms.

The event, presented over two days as per previous years, will take place physically within the CABSAT exhibition, using a dedicated, purpose built, centrally located and high-profile meetings facility. Not only will this bring the GVF Satellite Hub Summit closer to the exhibition space and to CABSAT’s thousands of visitors, but will offer participating organisations a higher level of visibility for their support for the event programme, and for the vitally important dialogues and opportunities for networking that the programme facilitates and promotes.

At CABSAT 2015, the GVF Satellite Hub Summit programme will feature a range of key themes and topics, many of which are new to the GVF CABSAT programme this year, and which have been included because they are at the very core of the current global satellite communications solutions discussion arena.

The summit will look at such themes as the potential implications of the 2015 ITU World Radiocommunication Conference, how the satellite industry is addressing the challenge of cyber security, satellite news gathering and Fibre to the premises, or fibre to the home (FTTP/FTTH), which is capable of incredible performance, but do high installation costs dictate that it remains an extremely limited deployment option?
