About this report
Inmarsat is a pioneer of satellite communications whose origins trace back to a United Nations mandate for maritime safety in 1979. Over four decades, this London-headquartered company has evolved from a niche provider of emergency ship-to-shore links into a linchpin of global connectivity for ships, aircraft, governments and militaries.
Today, Inmarsat’s satellites form an essential web of communications that European armed forces and industries quietly rely on when terrestrial networks fail or hostile jamming looms.
