By Kristy Dorsey A US firm specialising in satellite telecommunications services is to set up shop in Scotland in a further boost to the country’s burgeoning space sector. Mangata Networks of Arizona will create 38 jobs in Edinburgh where it will open a research and development centre to advance its satellite-based communication technologies. The company is said to be investing £10.5 million in Scotland, of which £3.6m will be offset by an award from development agency Scottish Enterprise. Mangata offers satellite connectivity by either hosting communications on its own platform, or by integration into existing networks. In addition to enhancing Scotland’s space capability, the inward investment is also expected to bolster Scotland’s proposition in the 5G communication sectors.
