Amazon’s broadband-by-satellite service, Project Kuiper, started launching its satellites in April. But a study by Analysys Mason says that even though only 153 Kuipers have been launched (out of a planned total of 3,232) the embryonic system is already topping Eutelsat’s OneWeb and has surpassed the 3.6 terabits/second that Eutelsat’s LEO system offers. Project Kuiper […]
Eutelsat’s Q1 numbers (it has a trading year that ends on June 30th) shows overall revenues down by 2.2 per cent YoY at €293 million. The division with the largest fall in revenue is Video, and which still accounts for 47 per cent of revenues, and where its DTH revenues amounted to €134 million, down […]
Tusass, Greenland’s national provider of telco services, has signed a strategic multi-year agreement to bring Eutelsat’s OneWeb low Earth orbit (LEO) connectivity to Greenland. The expanded partnership will enable the delivery of secure communications across the country’s vast and remote territory. Tusass will leverage Eutelsat’s OneWeb network to address a wide range of connectivity needs—from […]
Starlink, Amazon’s Project Kuiper, Eutelsat’s OneWeb and the SES/Jio plans for their satellite direct-to-consumer schemes might have an extra hurdle. Reports from India say that the government, which has been slow in issuing the necessary permits for these services to start, might now want to ‘cap’ or limit the number of subscribers they sign up. […]
Eutelsat Group has announced it will now be known simply as Eutelsat, bringing all its activities and subsidiaries under one brand. Following its successful merger with OneWeb, which created the world’s first GEO-LEO operator, Eutelsat now operates as a single company. The LEO constellation will continue under the OneWeb name, highlighting its central role in […]
Investment bank BNP Paribas has significantly increased its share price target on Eutelsat following the satellite operator’s results on August 5th. The target price jumps from €1 to €2.9, but the bank still advises clients to consider Eutelsat as an ‘Underperform’ stock, despite having the view that its OneWeb division was now “taking off”. The […]
Paris-based satellite operator Eutelsat says it will add another 340 of its OneWeb satellites into orbit by 2029. These 340 will be additional to the 100 craft already on order. OneWeb, which Eutelsat merged with in September 2023 is very much coming into its own. OneWeb’s low Earth orbiting (LEO) fleet of 648 satellites was […]
Eutelsat’s OneWeb division saw its revenues grow by more than 84 per cent (€187 million) and now represent about 15 per cent of overall revenue.

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy didn’t mention Elon Musk’s Starlink, or Eutelsat’s OneWeb, or Canada’s Telesat Lightspeed or any of the ever-growing list of would-be low Earth orbiting (LEO) satellite constellations in remarks on Amazon’s Q2 analysts call. But he did say that Amazon’s Project Kuiper would be one of only two major players in LEO. […]
