Hopes to provide pan-European mobile satellite services
Solaris Mobile has submitted an application in response to the European Commissions call for an EU-wide mobile satellite service.
If successful, Solaris will be able to provide mobile services such as TV reception, high-speed data transfer, public safety, disaster recovery and remote medical communications via satellite, anywhere within the 27 member states of the European Union as well as deploying terrestrial networks where necessary.
“We are excited to be submitting our application today in what promises to be a landmark development for European mobile communications,” said Solaris CEO, Steve Maine.
“Solaris Mobile will be in the unique position of being able to offer mobile satellite services as early as 2009, empowering state-of-the-art mobile networks and enabling innovative services to consumers across Europe.”
