A group of European space and telecommunications players have come together to form a partnership to respond to the European Commission\u2019s call for tender related to the future European satellite constellation IRIS\u00b2 (Infrastructure for Resilience, Interconnectivity and Security by Satellite). IRIS\u00b2 aims to bring a new secure and resilient connectivity infrastructure to European governments, businesses, and citizens.<\/p>\n

The open consortium will be governed by Airbus Defence and Space, Eutelsat, Hispasat, SES and Thales Alenia Space. The consortium will also rely on the core teams of the following companies: Deutsche Telekom, OHB, Orange, Hisdesat, Telespazio, and Thales. Together, they will aim to create a state-of-the-art satellite constellation based on a multi-orbit architecture that would be interoperable with the terrestrial ecosystem.<\/p>\n

This partnership will set up an integrated, best-in-class European space and telecoms team across these companies to leverage their expertise and capabilities in the field of secure satellite communications solutions. The consortium will encourage start-ups, mid-caps, and SMEs to join the partnership, resulting in a more innovative and competitive European space sector where new business models will emerge.<\/p>\n

The integrated team aims to foster collaboration among all European space players across the whole connectivity value chain with a view to enabling the EU\u2019s strategic autonomy through the delivery of sovereign, secure, and resilient government services to protect European citizens. The team will leverage synergies between government and commercial infrastructure. The teaming partners are also well positioned to provide commercial services to bridge the digital divide across European territories and increase Europe\u2019s global outreach and competitiveness as a space and digital power on the global market.<\/p>\n

IRIS\u00b2 will deliver resilient and secure connectivity solutions to governments to protect European citizens and will provide commercial services in the interest of European economies and societies. It will also bolster the EU’s partnership policy by offering its infrastructure abroad. IRIS\u00b2 is the EU’s new flagship space program for a digital, resilient, and safer Europe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
