OneWeb CEO Neil Masterson expressed confidence its ability to tap the expertise of a high-profile group of investors would give it a leg up in an increasingly competitive satellite market, smoothing the company’s path as it pursues commercial deals with operators and governments.
Since July 2020, OneWeb raised a total of $1.4 billion from the UK government, India’s Bharti Global, Japan’s SoftBank Group and satellite service provider Hughes Network Systems.
Speaking at the Satellite 2021 LEO Digital Forum, Masterson said all four of these investors provide access to “global capabilities that are really helpful” as it targets gains in the enterprise, government, maritime and aviation markets.
OneWeb sends up 36 broadband internet satellites
