SpeedCast to streamline acquisitions
into single identity to position the company as top 5 industry player globally.
Honolulu, Hawaii, January 18, 2014 – SpeedCast, one of the world’s
major international satellite telecommunications service providers, today
announced the latest step along its global expansion journey – a unifying of
its brand to create a single new force with a top five position in the
industry.
With more than 15 years experience, SpeedCast has enjoyed sustained
success and growth from its base in Hong Kong and now supports customers across
more than 60 countries through 16 sales and support offices, 30 teleport
operations and a network of 150 partners. Since embarking on its global
expansion two years ago, SpeedCast has acquired other established satellite
industry players, Australian Satellite Communications, Pactel International and
Elektrikom Satellite Services.
“We already have leadership market positions in Asia Pacific for land
VSAT services – as well as globally for maritime – and the time has come to
deliver on our vision of becoming a true global leader by taking this next step
forward,” said Pierre-Jean Beylier, CEO of SpeedCast.
“We are proud of our heritage in Asia and our commitment to Asia remains
total and passionate. But in our dynamic growth process we have developed
global experience and capability and today’s announcement is all about
positioning the company as a true world player – to the benefit of all of our
customers in particular and to the market worldwide.”
SpeedCast is making its announcement on the
opening day of the Pacific Islands Telecommunications Association (PITA)
meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii, where many of its customers will be attending. The
company will also be appearing and speaking at the Pacific Telecommunications
Council (PTC) at the same venue on the following day.
SpeedCast offers a vast range of services across satellite technology,
including broadband services, managed network services and value added services
such as VOIP and WAN optimization. Industries
served include Oil & Gas, Mining, Telcos, Government and maritime, where
the company has established a true one-stop shop with a world class
infrastructure for secure communications.
SpeedCast’s maritime business is a new emerging force in with a
leadership position in Asia and growing momentum in Europe. Within the maritime sector, SpeedCast has a
reputation for total service and innovation; such as when it pioneered the
first global Ku-band satellite communications network with auto-beam switching.
It now offers a full range of C-band and Ku-band services.
“Maritime is typical of the SpeedCast commitment to world class customer
service and delivery,” added Mr Beylier.
“We take a consultative approach, working with our customers to help
them select the best solutions available based on their requirements. We are
technology and frequency agnostic and operate the largest suite of solutions to
give us all the options possible. This approach is being developed for our
customers across all our markets and segments as we move towards making
SpeedCast the “go to” organisation for all aspects of satellite communications,
wherever they are.”
