Expanded Global Brand Combines Former UltiSat and Globecomm Infrastructure and Offerings into the Speedcast Family

WASHINGTON, May 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Speedcast International Limited (ASX: SDA), the world's most trusted provider of remote communication and IT solutions, announced today that the company has expanded its global brand family into the government space with the launch of Speedcast Government.

Speedcast Government brings together the former UltiSat and Globecomm government segments, and continues to operate independently as a subsidiary of the Speedcast group. The headquarters office is in Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA. Speedcast Government offers fully-managed, end-to-end, solutions to meet the mission-critical needs of US and global government operations around the world.

"The addition of Speedcast Government is a great growth opportunity for the global Speedcast organization," says Pierre-Jean Beylier, Speedcast CEO. "With market revenues expected to grow 7.2% per year over the next ten years in the Government segment¹, Speedcast's portfolio will continue to  diversify, solidifying our leadership position in the remote communication and IT services industry with a strong presence in key vertical markets."

"We are proud to launch Speedcast Government as the newest organization under the Speedcast family," says Moe Abutaleb, Speedcast Government CEO. "With the recent purchase of Globecomm, we have further strengthened our capabilities and infrastructure since UltiSat joined Speedcast in 2017, and have gained a wealth of additional resources and talented employees to help us in our pursuit to lead the industry in managed network services and solutions supporting mission-critical operations."

Speedcast backs their global "network of networks" and technology solutions with industry-leading 24x7 support from on-site engineers in 40+ countries around the world, ready to be there whenever necessary.
