Major Turkish companies showcased their products Wednesday at the world’s biggest satellite conference.
Turkey’s communications satellite operator TURKSAT, Turkish Aerospace Industries TUSAS, and PROFEN, which provides products and services communications and defense Technologies, attended the SATELLITE 2021 conference in the US state of Maryland.

“Executives, engineers, government officials, and commercial customers convene at SATELLITE to solve global challenges, bridge the digital divide, increase access to space, cultivate new innovation and future leadership, collaborate on policy, and network with colleagues and peers,” it added.
Some major speakers include SpaceX CFO Bret Johnsen, NASA Communications Services Project Manager Elias Naffah and European Space Agency Head of 5G Strategic Program Antonio Franchi.
