Introduction: Powering a Connected World   

At Viasat, we are driven by a simple but powerful belief: connectivity can unlock potential everywhere. We are a global communications company focused on delivering high-performance, reliable connectivity across land, air, and sea through advanced satellite systems and platforms. Our approach is built on a resilient, multi-orbit satellite network, coupled with cutting edge technology on  Earth, to create global communications capabilities. 

We are well known in the industry for our satellite infrastructure programs. Our ViaSat-3 constellation – including the recent launches of both ViaSat-3 F2 and F3 – trepresents another step forward to meet the rapidly growing international demand for data. We are further expanding our multi-orbit solutions for major industries like aviation and maritime. This approach gives us the ability to greatly expand our capabilities and help solve our customers’ challenges as a partner, not simply a provider.  

Elsewhere, we are underway on several exciting innovations with the UK and European Space Agencies and many global partners. This includes advancing communications from the Moon, new Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) technology, and modernizing future airspace communications to save fuel, emissions, and improve safety. Many colleagues in our International Business Headquarters in London are actively developing these projects to make them a reality. 

Our growing work in NTN, in particular, gives us the platform to explore new possibilities and extend connectivity to hundreds of millions - perhaps even billions - more devices in the future.
