Amazon aiming to deploy Kuiper satellite services in Vietnam

Orange Jordan announced on Wednesday it has become the first telco in the country to offer satellite broadband services for consumers and enterprises via the Eutelsat Konnect satellite.

Satellite communications firm EchoStar is moving ahead with plans to join the global direct-to-device (D2D) satellite race via a new LEO satellite constellation, and has awarded an initial US$1.3 billion contract to MDA Space to help build it.

A new report from Berg Insight, called The Satellite IoT Communications Market, addresses a market growing at what the independent industry analyst and firm describes as “a good steady pace”.
