About this report
Eutelsat Communications S.A. is Europe’s premier satellite communications operator, combining over 40 years of space expertise with a unique multi-orbit network of geostationary (GEO) and low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellites . In the wake of intensifying geopolitical tensions – notably the war in Ukraine and concerns over over-reliance on U.S.
and Chinese space assets – EU and NATO leaders have turned a spotlight on Eutelsat as a potential cornerstone of European connectivity sovereignty . Eutelsat’s recent merger with OneWeb and the ensuing build-out of a LEO constellation mark a strategic pivot from traditional TV broadcasting toward secure broadband and defence communications.
