Vocus and Telesat announce multi-year Telesat Lightspeed terrestrial infrastructure and services contract
MELBOURNE, Australia and OTTAWA, Canada, June 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Vocus, Australia's specialist digital infrastructure provider, and Telesat (Nasdaq and TSX: TSAT), one of the world's most innovative satellite operators, today announced that Vocus will build Australia's first Telesat Lightspeed Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Landing Station. Vocus will construct and operate the new Landing Station in New South Wales, Australia and provide fibre connectivity to Telesat's point of presence (PoP), connecting Telesat's advanced LEO satellite constellation, called Telesat Lightspeed, to terrestrial networks, providing secure, low-latency satellite services across the region. "As a leading provider of Landing Stations and fibre network solutions, Vocus is an ideal partner to deliver the resilient, scalable terrestrial infrastructure that not only serves as a key interconnect point for customer data, but also further strengthens Australia's digital infrastructure resilience," said Asit Tandon, Telesat's Chief Network and Information Officer. "Telesat will begin launching its LEO satellites in late 2026 and this new Landing Station will play a key role in satellite testing and customer field trials before global service delivery." "We're proud to be partnering with Telesat on establishing its network in Australia,' said Ashley Neale, Head of Vocus Space and Wireless Operations. 'Vocus already has 30 ground stations currently in operation or contracted to be built, demonstrating that our infrastructure provides the critical reliability needed for LEO networks.' Vocus signs Telesat Lightspeed services commitment The long-term agreement also includes Telesat Lightspeed services when the network becomes operational. These services, backed by committed information rates (CIR) and comprehensive service level agreements, will ensure resilient, low-latency connectivity for Vocus' enterprise and government customers, complementing its already substantial LEO satellite services customer base. "We're honoured that Vocus will be integrating our MEF 3.0 compliant Telesat Lightspeed Carrier Ethernet services into its portfolio to meet the secure, mission-critical requirements of their customers in Australia, as well as their distributed networks across the globe," said Glenn Katz, Telesat's Chief Commercial Officer. "In addition to public networking options via Telesat's global Landing Stations, our flexible architecture includes options for Private Access Stations, special security add-ons, and the ability for Vocus' customers to maintain complete control over encryption, providing valuable, differentiated capabilities in their LEO portfolio." A unique feature of the Telesat Lightspeed service will be its Terminal-to-Terminal direct connectivity capability, which eliminates the need for terrestrial links for customers transmitting especially sensitive information. "This will enable, for example, a naval vessel to communicate via the Telesat Lightspeed satellites directly with ground deployed soldiers via the optical laser-linked space network, completely bypassing land-based infrastructure or the public internet," explained Neale. "This capability will be extremely valuable to customers with mission-critical communications requirements and a desire to preserve data sovereignty even outside of Australia's geographic borders." About Vocus Vocus, Australia's specialist fibre and network solutions provider, owns and operates a 27,000-km fibre network across Australia and subsea connecting all Australian mainland capitals with New Zealand, Asia, and the USA. Vocus' network includes the 4,600km Australia Singapore Cable (ASC) from Perth to Singapore via Indonesia and the 2,100km North-West Cable System (NWCS) from Port Hedland to Darwin. Vocus owns a portfolio of well recognised brands catering to enterprise, government, wholesale, small business and residential customers across Australia. About Telesat Backed by a legacy of engineering excellence, reliability and industry-leading customer service, Telesat (NASDAQ and TSX: TSAT) is one of the largest and most innovative global satellite operators. Telesat works collaboratively with its customers to deliver critical connectivity solutions that tackle the world's most complex communications challenges, providing powerful advantages that improve their operations and drive profitable growth. Continuously innovating to meet the connectivity demands of the future, Telesat Lightspeed, the company's state-of-the-art Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network, has been optimized to meet the rigorous requirements of telecom, government, maritime and aeronautical customers. Telesat Lightspeed will redefine global satellite connectivity with ubiquitous, affordable, high-capacity, secure and resilient links with fibre-like speeds.

Why Alphabet Stock Just Popped
OpenAI has inked a deal to buy computing capacity from Google. OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini are competitors. Analysts call this "a big win for Google's cloud unit" -- and for Alphabet stock. 10 stocks we like better than Alphabet › Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) stock jumped nearly 3% earlier in the day before retreating to about a 1.3% gain as of 2 p.m. ET Tuesday. It's not a huge increase -- but then again, you don't expect $2.2 trillion market cap companies to make huge increases in percentage terms all that often. What's interesting about the gain, though, is what caused it. According to a Reuters exclusive report this morning, artificial intelligence (AI) leader OpenAI is planning to utilize Alphabet's Google cloud service to help carry the load of its AI operations. Reuters calls this development "surprising" given that OpenAI's ChatGPT service famously competes with Google's own Gemini. And yet, it appears this deal got done regardless. The partnership was in fact finalized last month. So why is OpenAI teaming up with the competition? Firstly, to diversify the company away from reliance on Microsoft data farms. (OpenAI is also partnering with SoftBank and Oracle on Project Stargate for similar reasons). Second, to support OpenAI's rapid growth in artificial intelligence services. On the one hand, that sounds like good news for OpenAI, and conversely bad news for Google's Gemini, if ChatGPT is growing fast enough to make OpenAI overlook concerns about handing cash to a competitor. On the other hand, though, OpenAI is giving cash to a competitor here. This will fuel Gemini's own rise, and highlights OpenAI's dependence on other companies -- even competing companies -- to support its own growth. Commenting on the news, Scotiabank analysts agreed this is "a big win for Google's cloud unit," which did $43 billion in sales last year, and will now do even more in 2025, thanks to OpenAI. I agree.

How the Vatican manages money and where Pope Leo XIV might find more
VATICAN CITY — The world's smallest country has a big budget problem. The Vatican doesn't tax its residents or issue bonds. It primarily finances the Catholic Church's central government through donations that have been plunging, ticket sales for the Vatican Museums, as well as income from investments and an underperforming real estate portfolio. The last year the Holy See published a consolidated budget, in 2022, it projected $878 million, with the bulk paying for embassies around the world and Vatican media operations. In recent years, it hasn't been able to cover costs. That leaves Pope Leo XIV facing challenges to drum up the funds needed to pull his city-state out of the red. Anyone can donate money to the Vatican, but the regular sources come in two main forms. Canon law requires bishops around the world to pay an annual fee, with amounts varying and at bishops' discretion 'according to the resources of their dioceses.' U.S. bishops contributed over one-third of the $22 million collected annually under the provision from 2021-2023, according to Vatican data. The other main source of annual donations is more well-known to ordinary Catholics: Peter's Pence, a special collection usually taken on the last Sunday of June. From 2021-2023, individual Catholics in the U.S. gave an average $27 million (23.7 million euros) to Peter's Pence, more than half the global total. American generosity hasn't prevented overall Peter's Pence contributions from cratering. After hitting a high of $101 million in 2006, contributions hovered around $75 million during the 2010's then tanked to $47 million during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, when many churches were closed. Donations remained low in the following years, amid revelations of the Vatican's bungled investment in a London property, a former Harrod's warehouse that it hoped to develop into luxury apartments. The scandal and ensuing trial confirmed that the vast majority of Peter's Pence contributions had funded the Holy See's budgetary shortfalls, not papal charity initiatives as many parishioners had been led to believe. Peter's Pence donations rose slightly in 2023 and Vatican officials expect more growth going forward, in part because there has traditionally been a bump immediately after papal elections. The Vatican bank and the city state's governorate, which controls the museums, also make annual contributions to the pope. As recently as a decade ago, the bank gave the pope around $62.7 million a year to help with the budget. But the amounts have dwindled; the bank gave nothing specifically to the pope in 2023, despite registering a net profit of $34.2 million, according to its financial statements. The governorate's giving has likewise dropped off. Some Vatican officials ask how the Holy See can credibly ask donors to be more generous when its own institutions are holding back. Leo will need to attract donations from outside the U.S., no small task given the different culture of philanthropy, said the Rev. Robert Gahl, director of the Church Management Program at Catholic University of America's business school. He noted that in Europe there is much less of a tradition (and tax advantage) of individual philanthropy, with corporations and government entities doing most of the donating or allocating designated tax dollars. Even more important is leaving behind the 'mendicant mentality' of fundraising to address a particular problem, and instead encouraging Catholics to invest in the church as a project, he said. Speaking right after Leo's installation ceremony in St. Peter's Square, which drew around 200,000 people, Gahl asked: 'Don't you think there were a lot of people there that would have loved to contribute to that and to the pontificate?' In the U.S., donation baskets are passed around at every Sunday Mass. Not so at the Vatican. The Vatican has 4,249 properties in Italy and 1,200 more in London, Paris, Geneva and Lausanne, Switzerland. Only about one-fifth are rented at fair market value, according to the annual report from the APSA patrimony office, which manages them. Some 70% generate no income because they house Vatican or other church offices; the remaining 10% are rented at reduced rents to Vatican employees. In 2023, these properties only generated $39.9 million in profit. Financial analysts have long identified such undervalued real estate as a source of potential revenue. But Ward Fitzgerald, the president of the U.S.-based Papal Foundation, which finances papal charities, said the Vatican should also be willing to sell properties, especially those too expensive to maintain. Many bishops are wrestling with similar downsizing questions as the number of church-going Catholics in parts of the U.S. and Europe shrinks and once-full churches stand empty. Toward that end, the Vatican recently sold the property housing its embassy in Tokyo's high-end Sanbancho neighborhood, near the Imperial Palace, to a developer building a 13-story apartment complex, according to the Kensetsu News trade journal. Yet there has long been institutional reluctance to part with even money-losing properties. Witness the Vatican announcement in 2021 that the cash-strapped Fatebenefratelli Catholic hospital in Rome, run by a religious order, would not be sold. Pope Francis simultaneously created a Vatican fundraising foundation to keep it and other Catholic hospitals afloat. 'They have to come to grips with the fact that they own so much real estate that is not serving the mission of the church,' said Fitzgerald, who built a career in real estate private equity.
