From 6 to 9 May the Walter Edward Washington Convention Center in Washington D.C. hosted the world’s most important satellite-technology event, SATELLITE 2019, bringing together representatives from the top telecommunications-satellite companies.

GMV now boasts a wealth of experience in ground-segment development and is currently the world’s number-one supplier of control systems for telecommunications space missions. As such it could hardly miss this event in a world where telecommunications is becoming increasingly interrelated and connected and underpins other important markets like the media, transport, finances and even the consumer industry.

GMV, with the support of the Spanish External Trade Institute (Instituto Español de Comercio Exterior), exhibited its products and services, showcasing especially its ground-segment control systems such as hifly (satellite control), focussuite (orbit control), closeap/focusoc (collision risk management and associated services), flexplan (satellite-resource planning system), magnet (monitoring-station control), smartrings (configuration management and payload optimization) and smarthz (frequency-management system); plus network-security and vulnerability-analysis services.

This event is the world’s best showcase for in situ display of products, offering the possibility of holding real-time demos for both actual and potential customers while also pinpointing new needs in the space industry.
