The results of Gazprom Space Systems' participation in CommunicAsia2009

The annual exhibition and conference CommunicAsia2009 was held in Singapore for the 20th time. This year the exhibition hosted about 1 300 exhibiting companies. Though the number of visitors was 15% lower as compared to the last year, the professional level of the forum just increased.

The annual exhibition and conference CommunicAsia2009 was held in Singapore for the 20th time. This year the exhibition hosted about 1 300 exhibiting companies. Though the number of visitors was 15% lower as compared to the last year, the professional level of the forum just increased.

The general opinion, formed during the exhibition, is that Asia unlike the rest of the world is not so fiercely affected by the global economic crisis, though if the global market does not overcome the crisis in the nearest months, even the Asian region will get wounded.

Still at present all indicators prove the health and dynamic growth of the Asian market. The fact that all global players of telecom market exhibited in Singapore shows the importance and prospective of this region for satellite services. This is the reason why many telecommunication companies move their business focus from other regions to Asia, while global and regional satellite operators make plans to develop their satellite constellations to serve the Asian customers.

Another feature of CommunicAsia2009 is that the Asian region, being one of the world's innovative centres, determines the mainstream of telecommunication and information technologies development, to be followed by the rest of the world.

The Asian region is one of the main zones of strategic interest for Gazprom Space Systems. Satellite Yamal-202 at the orbital position 49E with a semiglobal coverage zone providing the basis of the company's international business, is well-known by the Asian customers for its high consumer characteristics of the capacity. Part of the capacity of new satellites, under construction, will also be used in this region.

At the exhibition the representatives of Gazprom Space Systems held more than 50 meetings with the present and the potential customers, as a result several current contracts were prolonged and new agreements were reached (in particular, the agreement to provide satellite capacity for broadcasting two TV channels).

Gazprom Space Systems' delegation also visited the teleports of its Singapore customers - SingTel and ST Teleport.
