40 People Who Shaped the Satellite Industry: Part One

As Via Satellite marks its 40-year anniversary in 2026, we’re celebrating with a special feature: 40 People Who Shaped the Satellite Industry, to mark visionaries both past and present that have made the satellite industry what it is today.

This feature is meant to be part tribute, part history lesson, with some anecdotes from some of the supporting characters along the way. Via Satellite will publish the full 40 People over the next few months, leading up to our 40th Anniversary Special Edition.
