Advanced Television: Analyst: “Satcom entering new consolidation cycle”
NSR suggests that further satcom consolidation is on the horizon, with the global satellite communication industry transitioning to meet new market trends and match projected threats from perceived disruptors. “It is typical to expect mergers and acquisitions (M&A) within any maturing industry, especially technology-driven sectors, where inventors regularly threaten incumbents,” they say. “In the case of satcom, the industry is entering a new consolidation cycle, where vertical integration is becoming as inevitable as horizontal solidification,” they assert.
