Via Satellite: Smallsat IoT Players See Big Opportunity in Small Connections
According to Northern Sky Research (NSR), the smallsat IoT business is on the way to becoming a $1 billion market in just eight years. New Space startups in this area are increasing their momentum of building constellations and developing technologies, aiming to provide keener competition with the big satellite companies.
These predictions, IoT applications, and more were part of the discussion by Via Satellite with five executives of these New Space IoT players — Skylo, Lacuna Space, Totum Labs, Astrocast, and Fleet Space Technologies — as well as standard-bearer Iridium, about the growth of smallsat IoT services.
