WAVE Consortium’s Post

Global MilSatCom 2025 has officially begun with the Focus Day! Defence leaders, technologists, and policymakers have united to unlock strategies for secure, resilient connectivity across land, sea, air, and space. Over the next few days, London becomes the epicentre of global defence communications, delivering actionable insights, fostering collaboration, and shaping mission-critical solutions for tomorrow’s operations. The Focus Day sets the tone with a deep dive into the evolution of SATCOM On-The-Move. As the demand for agile, resilient connectivity reaches new heights, SATCOM OTM takes centre stage once again, diving into the latest breakthroughs and mission-critical challenges shaping operations across domains 🎙️ Dr Thomas Withington, Associate Fellow at Royal United Services Institute, opened the day as Chair of the Focus Day and set the tone for strategic insight and operational relevance. Following this, David Dean (Chief Engineer & MilSatCom Principal Advisor, Dstl) explored: · Hybrid SATCOM networks · Operational use cases · Technology roadmaps for future deployment 💬 “There is a need for more seamless service provision, roaming services, agile service delivery and interoperability”: David Dean With insights from senior leaders across the US, UK, NATO, and Europe, today’s sessions explore how SATCOM OTM is actively supporting Ukraine’s frontline communications and shaping the future of defence connectivity. #Globalmilsatcom2025 #SATCOMOTM #DefenceConnectivity #FocusDay

We’re excited to share a recap from AFCEA TechNet Indo-Pacific 2025! CIS Secure showcased rugged, portable technology designed to empower DoD missions and enable secure communications at the edge. From AI-driven solutions to field-ready server and wireless kits, our team demonstrated how innovation supports DoD missions in challenging environments.

Satellite–terrestrial convergence is rapidly emerging as a cornerstone of sovereign, next-generation infrastructure. As the industry focuses on network resilience and last-mile connectivity, NSG CEO Martijn Blanken will share his vision at #CapacityEurope2025 on how telcos can harness this evolution to elevate service delivery across diverse geographies.   Join the dialogue shaping the future of global connectivity — where interoperability, low-latency networks, and secure satellite communications converge to power a truly connected world.   #SatelliteTech #CapacityEurope #NeoSpaceGroup #NSG #aPIFcompany #HybridNetworks

The satcom industry is undergoing a major transformation toward open, interoperable, and multi-orbit networks. In Via Satellite, ST Engineering iDirect CTO Sridhar Kuppanna and Shravan Kumar Gaddam share how we’re leading the shift to multi-vendor, standards-based connectivity, bridging satellite and terrestrial networks to build a more flexible, future-ready ecosystem.

Those who understand the true potential of quantum also understand the magnitude of the threat it carries. Last week in Istanbul, at NATO’s Innovation Continuum (SHINE), our team supported NATO Allied Command Transformation (ACT)'s efforts to accelerate innovation across the Alliance – joining Allies, industry leaders, and researchers advancing the next generation of secure systems for a post-quantum world. As the only company building a full-stack silicon platform for secure compute, we demonstrated how quantum-safe communication and data sharing across independent networks can be embedded directly at the hardware layer – helping NATO explore more scalable, resilient, and quantum-ready architectures, alongside other innovations on display last week. Our VP of Security & Defense, Henry Gates, delivered a clear message: “Quantum is a today problem – our digital fragility is a risk we need to deal with now. We must embed security and scalability at the heart of our digital infrastructure – right in the silicon itself.” At Fortaegis, we believe sovereignty in the quantum era cannot rely on software alone. It must be structural – engineered into the foundation of compute. The conversations in Istanbul reinforced what we’ve always known: The future of deterrence will be decided not just by algorithms, but by the integrity of the silicon beneath them. We look forward to continuing to support ACT, NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCI Agency), and great partners like SMA-RTY to strengthen resilience for the West.

Warian is participating in Atlantic Convergence 2025, the forum that brings together global leaders in telecommunications, data centres and digital infrastructure to discuss the future of connectivity between Europe, Africa and the Americas. From 28 to 30 October, in Lisbon, Alfredo Giordano and Marco Paesani will represent Warian in an international debate on key issues such as AI, 6G, submarine cables, edge computing, network security and resilience. This is an opportunity to contribute to the global dialogue on pan-Atlantic architectures that support the digital transformation of businesses and the freedom of connected systems to evolve.

“There’s nothing like pulling a guy’s antenna and maintaining the [satellite] link. DIFI was awesome.” A.J. Vigil reported encouraging news about results from a satcom demo performed last summer, which demonstrated full-digital IF signal chains. Stuart Daughtridge says that it was a productive day for advancing digital IF acceptance and anticipating more AI projects in the near future.
