In March 2017, SSPI inducted four industry leaders into the Satellite Hall of Fame, joining luminaries from Dr. Arthur C. Clarke and Dr. Harold Rosen to Mark Dankberg and David Thompson.  In their remarks, all four leaders spoke about the inspiring power of our technology to make life on earth better, safer, more productive and fulfilling.  Hear excerpts that tell stories of achievement not just in business but in service to humanity.

Have a Story of Your Own to Contribute?

The Better Satellite World campaign uses stories to communicate the contributions of satellite to the modern world.  We start with case studies submitted by SSPI sponsors and add facts, opinions and commentary to tell the human side of the satellite story.  Send your case study by email to makingthecase@sspi.org and we will evaluate it for the campaign.
