SSPI is delighted to co-operate with EUsatcom, according to SSPI's Executive Directror Robert Bell. “We are happy to see that  the group of active participants that have taken the lead to build up the professional network in Europe have reached this landmark, and we will co-operate with them closely also in future. I am really looking forward to both EUsatcom events, particularly the Innovations Awards,"   said Bell.

 "There is a lot of technology developments in the satellite broadcasting industry and the Association has worked hard to put together a program where our members can get a technology update for the next generation satellite systems.  I think we succeeded to find a series of top notch speakers that will introduce these new developments to our members and point out the new business opportunities they provide. We are also looking forward to the more informal networking part of the events introducing new members to the European satellite professional community in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere like at the EUsatcom Innovation Awards," said Hub Urlings of the EUsatcom Bureau.
