Airbus and Saudi’s Salam Join Forces

Airbus’ HAPS (High Altitude Platform Station) Connectivity Business has signed a strategic partnership with Salam, a Saudi telecommunications and ICT company, part of the Mawarid Media & Communications Group (MMCG).

It will look at developing private networks, IoT applications, disaster management solutions and other connectivity and high-altitude Earth observation services from the stratosphere to meet the needs of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
 
Ahmad Al-Anqari, Salam’s CEO, said: “We see in Airbus’ Zephyr platform a key asset to provide private network services, IoT solutions, as well as civil, governmental and non-governmental applications. We look forward to this partnership with Airbus to serve the Saudi market in support of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 goals.”
 
“In partnership with Salam, our Zephyr platform, with its demonstrated advanced capabilities, will be instrumental in serving several markets in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” highlighted Jeff Smith, Head of Connectivity of Airbus’ HAPS Connectivity Business.
 
Airbus, a leader in the HAPS market with Zephyr, will provide low-latency, direct-to-device 5G connectivity services, and persistent high-resolution imaging and live video delivered from the stratosphere. It will support in bridging the digital divide and bringing connectivity services to those who are unserved or underserved from a solar-powered and carbon-neutral platform.
