At SDSS and WSBW 2025 in Paris spotlighted a maturing space industry where ambition now meets accountability. Direct-to-Device, data-driven insights, supply chain resilience, and sustainability emerged as defining themes. The message is clear: success in space will hinge on execution, integration, and delivering real-world value, not just technical potential.

Day One of WSBW 2025 showed the space industry is finally growing up. Direct-to-Device is moving from hype to market reality, EO faces pressure to deliver insights over imagery, and sustainability is shifting from mantra to market. With financing tightening and geopolitics shaping spectrum and data, the industry’s future depends less on launches and more on building resilient, scalable businesses.

Space42 and Viasat have announced Equatys, a joint venture to deliver global Direct-to-Device services and evolve Mobile Satellite Services into a 5G environment. Backed by the world’s largest coordinated spectrum block, Equatys will operate as an industry-first “space tower” company, using shared Non-Terrestrial-Network infrastructure to cut costs, boost spectrum efficiency, and expand universal connectivity.
