What do a sheep farmer in the Outback of Australia, a student in a Caribbean island country, a first responder in a natural disaster, and an executive on a long-haul flight have in common?

They’ve all benefited from additional broadband internet connectivity delivered by low-Earth orbit satellite networks.

With additional satellite constellations coming online soon, more benefits will follow with more competition in the marketplace. I represent some of these satellite operators in my work with Crest Hill Advisors.
