It is working hard to join the broad telecommunications landscape and break through the current barriers that limit mass-market adoption of satellite consumer and enterprise broadband. Innovative concepts and technologies must come together to propel satellite into the major role it could play in our hyper-connected society. The four corners of innovation \u2014 Delivery, Capacity, Efficiency and Distribution \u2014 must each create enormous price and performance disruption to meet the latent user demand for broadband worldwide.
