In 2025, we celebrate the XIII edition of the HISPASAT SATELLITE INNOVATION DAYS, which will be held in the main cities of our markets, this time in Santiago de Chile, Rio de Janeiro and for the first time in Cape Town, where you can meet the different relevant personalities of the satellite, audiovisual and telecommunications world that will cover the latest trends and new challenges of the sector.

We are excited to see you at the 13th edition of the Hispasat Innovation Days to spread the word about the latest news in the satellite sector and its environment.

This year we will present several themes where the satellite is the protagonist:


  • 5G deployment via satellite.

  • The new multi-orbit satellite ecosystem.

  • The satellite as an ally for governments in the defense, security, and disaster and emergency response sectors.

  • Adding value through connectivity to combat the digital divide.

  • Satellite backhaul and support for the deployment of 4G and 5G networks.

  • Mobility: the new frontier of on-the-go communications.

  • Satellite connectivity in new HTS infrastructures.

  • Added value in the satellite industry: Intelligent Network Management, cybersecurity, cloud computing, among others.

  • Innovation in satellite services: Success stories.
