2. Dear Colleagues,
We’re delighted to announce the return of Global MilSatCom – SMi Group’s flagship conference – now in its 21st year –
which remains the premier event for military satellite professionals.
In the following pages you will find detailed information about everything this event has to offer – including a snapshot of
what the international military community is working towards & the latest equipment, networks and programmes being
developed by industry.
This year, we took the additional step of engaging with our audience and key stakeholders to ensure that this forum
remains a pivotal event in the defence industry’s diary; and we believe that this is reflected in the quality of the most
comprehensive Global MilSatCom to date.
Last year we successfully moved to a brand-new conference venue – the QEII Conference Centre – to cater to our
growing audience numbers and exhibitor demand. We also launched a pre-conference focus day exploring Small
Satellites and Disruptive Technology, which took place in another new venue – St James Court – exploring the growing
race to launch cube, nano and micro-satellites into orbit and what the drive to provide ‘data connectivity for the many’
means in the defence sector.
With 2019 an essential year, for both the host nation’s SKYNET programme, disruptive ‘go fast’ efforts being pioneered
in the US and NATO signing a new alliance-wide MOU – Global MilSatCom will once again delve into these key mission
areas, alongside its unparalleled international & industry representation.
This year’s conference will enhance relationships between vendors and allied nations through the sharing of experience
and knowledge among decision makes in military and government as well as industry.
We invite you to join us and over 550 other attendees, from over 35 different nations, to network across 3 days of
conference and receptions, as well as our dedicated focus day to discuss these important topics.
Yours faithfully,
The Global MilSatCom Space and Satellite Division

taj Hotel St James, london, UK | Chaired by Squadron leader (Ret’d) Ralph Dinsley, Director, Northern Space & Security ltd
Returning by popular demand, this year’s Global MilSatCom will once again
host a pre-conference Small Satellites and Disruptive Technology focus day – set
to explore this critical enabler for the military forces. Bringing together leading
commercial solution providers, those at the cutting edge of small satellite R&D
and government end-users: this forum provides a domain to discuss what
future trends in constellation development might have here on the ground.
With ever growing numbers of small, nano and pseudo satellites going into orbit,
the time has never been riper than to explore this nascent industry as it transforms
communication capability. Setting the scene for Europe’s leading Military
Satellite Communications show – this focus day will explore future launch, hosted
payloads, mega-constellation development and sustainability considerations.
Sure to be an unmissable introduction to the world of SATCOM – this year’s focus
day is a critical diary date for anyone looking to explore the next generation of
space technologies.

13.45 Drastic times Call for Drastic Measures - Why the US Government Must Change
the way they view and Procure Commercial SatCoM
• The threat demands the USG quickly develop a more resilient architecture,
supported by ready access to capacity - multiple bands, orbits, & networks
- Commercial SATCOM is a significant contributor to a more distributed,
disaggregated architecture
- Need to get inside the enemy’s decision loop
• The need for speed: Industry can provide improved SATCOM capabilities
much faster than purpose built acquisition efforts
- Commercial satellite procurement completed in 2-3 years
- Allows for much more flexible and timely technology insertion and
adapting to a changing security and information assurance landscape
- Provides key host vehicles for hosted payloads at a fraction of the cost of
free flyers or purpose built satellites
• USG sponsored innovation and partnerships are needed to change the way
we do business and to enable a more flexible, integrated architecture
- Good examples include SMC’s Pathfinder and Pilot initiatives to act as
catalysts for more innovative approaches
- Other examples include DIU and DEUCSI who are pushing experimentation
and innovation to leverage commercial capabilities for the warfighter
- Need to view owner/operators as “Industry Partners” providing “vital
infrastructure”
• Longer-term agreements needed to provide incentives for industry
investment and tailored capabilities for the warfighter
Mr Peter Hoene, President and CEO, SES GS
14.15 Panel Discussion - transforming the allied Space Enterprise:
Governance of future satcom acquisition and life cycle management
• ‘Always the predator, never the prey’ – why staying ahead of our
adversaries requires a ‘go fast’ approach
• SMC 2.0., the Catalyst Space Accelerator and other rapid prototyping
and procurement lines of effort within the DoD
• How industry integrate into the DoD’s approach – from primes to
incubators – partnering with commercials to deliver the bandwidth
demanded by the warfighter
• What organisational structure changes such as the Space COCOM
mean for future processes
• Where allied partners can help speed up our access to the space
enablers required

DELEGATE DETAILS
Payment: If payment is not made at the time of booking, then an invoice will be issued and must
be paid immediately and prior to the start of the event. If payment has not been received then
credit card details will be requested and payment taken before entry to the event. Bookings within
7 days of event require payment on booking. Access to the Document Portal will not be given
until payment has been received.
Substitutions/Name Changes: If you are unable to attend you may nominate, in writing, another
delegate to take your place at any time prior to the start of the event. Two or more delegates may
not ‘share’ a place at an event. Please make separate bookings for each delegate.
Cancellation: If you wish to cancel your attendance at an event and you are unable to send
a substitute, then we will refund/credit 50% of the due fee less a £50 administration charge,
providing that cancellation is made in writing and received at least 28 days prior to the start of
the event. Regretfully cancellation after this time cannot be accepted. We will however provide
the conferences documentation via the Document Portal to any delegate who has paid but is
unable to attend for any reason. Due to the interactive nature of the Briefings we are not normally
able to provide documentation in these circumstances. We cannot accept cancellations of
orders placed for Documentation or the Document Portal as these are reproduced specifically to
order. If we have to cancel the event for any reason, then we will make a full refund immediately,
but disclaim any further liability.
Alterations: It may become necessary for us to make alterations to the content, speakers, timing,
venue or date of the event compared to the advertised programme.
