Sateliot commissions Alén Space to build five new satellites
The launch of these satellites is scheduled for 2026, in line with Sateliots roadmap to provide global 5G connectivity. Sateliot has taken another step forward in the deployment of its satellite constellation by entrusting the manufacture of its next five satellites to the Spanish firm Alén Space. These satellites, which will become part of its low-Earth orbit (LEO) network, are scheduled for launch in 2026 and reinforce Sateliots position as a dual-use civilian and defence 5G satellite connectivity operator, in line with Europes strategic push for space autonomy. With this move, Sateliot continues to implement its roadmap to deploy a constellation of over 100 satellites, fully developed in Barcelona and validated by 3GPPthe international telecommunications standards bodywith the goal of delivering secure and interoperable global coverage. The new satellites, which will be manufactured at Alén Spaces facilities in Nigrán (Spain), include significant enhancements compared to the models already in orbit, enabling improved performance and greater payload capacity. This architecture is capable of supporting advanced communication services in both civilian contexts and critical security operations, territorial protection, or emergency response scenarios. As such, it positions Sateliot as a key player in the European space ecosystem. The collaboration with Alén Space is not new, as both companies previously worked closely on the manufacture of the first four commercial satellites in the constellation, which were successfully launched in August 2024 aboard a SpaceX rocket. Sateliot already holds contracted commitments worth approximately 270m with over 400 clients across 50 countries. On this foundation, the company projects revenue of 1bn by 2030, consolidating its position as a pioneering European operator of global 5G satellite connectivity. Jaume Sanpera, CEO of Sateliot, said: 'This project demonstrates that we are capable of building critical infrastructure from scratch in Spain. We have developed open and interoperable, made-in-Spain technology that not only meets global connectivity needs, but also contributes to European technological sovereignty.' Guillermo Lamelas, CEO of Alén Space, stated: 'We are proud to collaborate with Sateliot on such an innovative and pioneering project, which will redefine the future of communications from Spain. This agreement acknowledges the quality of the work carried out on the first four satellites and strengthens our position as the most reliable small satellite manufacturer.'

Sateliot and Syniverse Deliver First Standardized Billing Framework for Non-Terrestrial Networks
BARCELONA & TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In a landmark move for the telecommunications industry, Sateliot, the first company to offer 5G standard-based non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) on its low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation, and Syniverse, the world's most connected company ®, have launched the telecommunications industry's first standardized billing framework for NTN connectivity. This collaboration underscores Sateliot's commitment to industry-wide standardization and interoperability. By integrating Syniverse's extensive experience in roaming and billing, Sateliot can offer seamless service to mobile network operators (MNOs) and mobile virtual network operators (MVNOs) using GSMA's TAP (Transferred Account Procedures) and BCE (Billing and Charging Evolution) standards. "This partnership is a key milestone on the enabling of NTN commercialization," said Gianluca Redolfi, CCO at Sateliot. "By adopting standardized billing processes, we are removing complexity for our MNO and MVNO partners and accelerating the integration of satellite connectivity into existing terrestrial networks." The agreement with Syniverse shows Sateliot's ability to ensure roaming interoperability and end-to-end service delivery across satellite and terrestrial domains. This positions Sateliot as a catalyst for global digital transformation, particularly in regions where traditional connectivity is lacking. "What Sateliot is doing with non-terrestrial network billing reflects the broader shift toward interoperability and commercial readiness in satellite," said Andrew Davies, Chief Executive Officer of Syniverse. "Syniverse helped define what scalable billing looks like in mobile communications, and we're now applying that expertise to help satellite providers unlock roaming and monetization from Day 1 with the reliability, security, and scale expected of any mobile network." With a rapidly expanding portfolio of partnerships across Latin America, Europe, Africa, and Asia, Sateliot is executing on its vision to bring 5G IoT satellite connectivity to millions. The company is collaborating with multiple global network operators to pilot services that support smart agriculture, logistics, environmental monitoring, and other applications. "The future of connectivity depends on seamless integration between terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks and driving standards,' said Barbara Pareglio, Senior Technical Director and NTN Community lead of GSMA. 'By working together, through initiatives such as the GSMA's NTN Community, mobile network operators, satellite providers, and the broader mobile ecosystem can accelerate innovation, bridge connectivity gaps, and create new opportunities so that people, industry, and society thrive.' About Sateliot Sateliot is the first satellite operator to offer 5G standard-based non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), creating a seamless extension of cellular IoT connectivity from space. Through partnerships with MNOs and MVNOs, Sateliot enables cost-effective, standardized global coverage for the Internet of Things. About Syniverse Syniverse is the world's most connected company.

Spanish satellite operator Sateliot in talks to offer 5G to European armies
MADRID: Spanish satellite startup Sateliot is in talks with several European defence ministries to offer 5G connection for their militaries, its co-founders said on Wednesday. The company, which recently raised 70 million euros ($79 million) in debt and equity, expects to offer narrow 5G band connection to small devices in areas without mobile phone coverage through satellites. Co-founder and CEO Jaume Sanpera said the European company was attracting interest from countries in the region that want to reduce their reliance on non-European companies such as Elon Musk's Starlink. "Our service is applicable to battlefield logistics, so we have been contacted for that technology," said Marco Guadalupi, Sateliot's co-founder and chief technology officer, without disclosing which countries or how many. The company has signed an exclusivity agreement with defence contractor Indra , which owns a 4% in Sateliot, to sell its services to the military. Aside from the defence sector, other potential customers include logistics companies, farmers, oil platforms, or environmental applications, which do not need real time broadband connections. The company intends to start commercial service within two months by supplying local mobile telephone operators across the world. Final customers would pay about 2.50 euros ($2.83) a month to connect a device for a few moments a day. The company intends to deploy about 100 satellites by 2028 and hit 1 billion euros in revenue by 2030. It will gradually improve the quality of connection, making it possible to transmit voice messages once its constellation gets denser. After the most recent financing round, the Spanish state owns a 20% stake in Sateliot, Sanpera said. Sateliot currently operates five low-orbit nano satellites, each about the size of a microwave oven, and services 12 test clients.
