The satellite industry will be facing serious challenges in raising new capital and credit due to the downturn in the world financial markets. This was the gist of a whole-day ISCe Satellite Investment Symposium (ISIS-NYC) held at the 3 West Club in midtown Manhattan, New York last October 13, 2008. 

One of the industry’s  little secrets is actually a major trade show that attracts almost three times the number of attendees as the annual Satellite show in Washington, D.C.  The Broadcast, Cable and Satellite Eurasia  Expo and Conference held annually in November in Istanbul, Turkey attracted over 14,000 attendees in 2007 and 511 exhibiting companies from 44 countries. The exhibition and conference’s main draw is the emerging market of over 500 million people in the Eurasian region where Turkey is a major center.
