At ATxEnterprise 2026, Brian Aziz, VP of Global Sales at Iridium speaks with The Fast Mode about the evolution of satellite communications, the commercialization of Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), and how satellite and cellular technologies are converging to deliver seamless global connectivity.
In this episode of The Fast Mode’s Executive Interview Series, Brian discusses how:
-
NTN will create a unified connectivity platform, allowing users to seamlessly transition between terrestrial cellular networks and satellite coverage through a single device and subscription -
Growing demand for reliable and resilient connectivity is driving new opportunities in sectors such as smart utilities, automotive, livestock monitoring, and global asset tracking -
Concerns around GPS jamming and spoofing are accelerating interest in alternative PNT solutions, particularly across Europe, the Middle East, and increasingly the Asia-Pacific region -
Strategic collaborations with mobile network operators, device manufacturers, and technology partners are critical to scaling NTN adoption and expanding satellite-enabled services worldwide
