Panel discussion ' How will terrestrial and non-terrestrial networks' convergence enable operators to provide resilient connectivity faster?

Satellite has always played a key role in connecting rural and island communities. With growing fleets of LEO satellites and the adoption of standards to more closely integrate with terrestrial networks, this session will discuss:

• How will satellite operators' adoption of MEF standards revolutionise its role and bring terrestrial and non-terrestrial operators closer together?
• The additional roles of satellite connectivity across the region in connecting rural communities and for disaster recovery
• The impact of the current and upcoming LEO constellations
