An online global marketplace for trading satellite capacity…

One of our clients is an online global marketplace for trading satellite capacity. The satellite capacity traded covers: Satellite bandwidth (short, medium and long term) as well as mobile uplinks (satellite news gathering, production vehicles and flyaways).

The global market for satellite capacity includes an annual turnover of approximately $7 billion, with the three largest markets being Europe, Asia and North America. Most of the available satellite capacity is used for radio and television broadcasting.

Using the advantages of the Internet, buyers and sellers can subscribe to the website and post their offers to sell and requests to buy on bulletin boards using a simple posting form. Other interested subscribers can then select a posted offer or request to review the details. After checking the details a bid can be submitted.

Targeting Satellite and Telecom operators, Broadcasters, Production Companies, News Agencies and SNG-Vehicle Users and Providers, our client provides an efficient way of managing satellite resources through an online marketplace, increasing revenues at a close to zero investment.
