The global mobile satellite services market size is expected to reach USD 9.65 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.8% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) offer data and voice communication services by using satellites. Mobile satellite services are experiencing significant growth, driven by the increasing demand for reliable and secure connectivity in remote and hard-to-reach areas where terrestrial networks are limited.
The growing popularity of telemedicine and telehealth services is also driving the demand for MSS. In remote and underserved areas, where access to healthcare services can be limited, MSS provides a reliable means of communication between patients and healthcare professionals. MSS providers are developing solutions that enable telemedicine consultations, remote monitoring of patients, and the transmission of medical data in real-time.
Key market players are partnering to develop and offer mobile satellite solutions. For instance, in February 2022, Thuraya Telecommunications Company announced its partnership with Delnet International Corporation, the top enterprise and maritime communication solutions provider in the Philippines. This initiative allowed Delnet International Corporation to distribute and sell Thuraya Telecommunications Company’s advanced satellite mobility solutions across the country.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a mixed impact on mobile satellite services operations. The economic downturn caused by the pandemic has also impacted the mobile satellite services industry. Many businesses have cut down on their operational costs, including communication expenses, which has resulted in reduced demand for mobile satellite services. On the other hand, the pandemic has forced businesses to adopt remote working models, leading to a surge in demand for reliable and secure communication services. Mobile satellite services have emerged as a key solution for remote workers, providing them with high-speed data connectivity and voice communication services, regardless of their location.
