New Format, New Location, New Agenda…GVF Satellite Hub Summit @ CABSAT 2015
by Martin Jarrold
Dubai, UAE, March 4, 2015--This year, GVF at CABSAT 2015 has a dedicated satellite hub summit as a part of the CABSAT conference content, bringing an event with a brand new format, new and innovative content, and a new location, as the GVF Satellite Hub Summit @ CABSAT 2015. The event, presented over two days, 11th & 12th March, will take place physically within the satellite area of the CABSAT exhibition, using a dedicated, purpose built, centrally located and high-profile meetings facility in exhibition Hall 8.
Not only will this bring the GVF Satellite Hub Summit into the exhibition space, closer to CABSAT’s thousands of visitors, but it will offer participating organizations – sponsors and speakers – a higher level of visibility for their support for the event program, and for the vitally important dialogues and opportunities for networking that the program facilitates and promotes.
The event will be chaired by me, with additional moderators taking-on the chairing role for specific sessions. Indeed, Virgil Labrador, editor-in-chief of this publication will be moderating two of the Hub Summit sessions.
The GVF MENASAT Summit @ CABSAT has been an embedded, key, added-value, feature of the annual CABSAT exhibition for many years, and 2015 will continue the complementary relationship between exhibition and summit program. GVF and CABSAT 2015 have announced a dedicated satellite hub summit as a part of the CABSAT conference, bringing an event with a brand new format, and new and innovative content, as the GVF Satellite Hub Summit @ CABSAT 2015.
The event, presented over two days as per previous years, will take place physically within the satellite area of the CABSAT exhibition, using a dedicated, purpose built, centrally located and high-profile meetings facility in Hall 8. Not only will this bring the GVF Satellite Hub Summit closer to the exhibition space and to CABSAT’s thousands of visitors, but will offer participating organizations – sponsors and speakers – a higher level of visibility for their support for the event program, and for the vitally important dialogues and opportunities for networking that the program facilitates and promotes.
The GVF Satellite Hub Summit program will feature a range of key themes and topics, many of which are new to the GVF CABSAT program this year, and which have been included because they are at the very core of the current global satellite communications solutions discussion arena.
