Rio de Janeiro  08 April 2015

Telespazio takes part in LAAD (Latin American Aero and Defence) 2015, the foremost international exhibition dedicated to Aerospace and Defence in South America, which will be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, from 14-17 April.

Within the Finmeccanica Group stand, the company presents its main activities in the field of satellite communications and geo-information services. In particular, the company will illustrate its role in large programmes such as COSMO-SkyMed, the innovative Italian constellation composed of four radar satellites for Earth observation, and SICRAL, the Italian satellite system for military communications.

Telespazio's presence in Brazil spans over almost twenty years through its subsidiary Telespazio Brasil. The company has five satellite hubs in Rio de Janeiro and Porto Alegre, and provides telecommunications services for fixed and mobile operators, government agencies and the corporate market.

Moreover, Telespazio also markets in Latin America, on behalf of e-GEOS (an ASI/Telespazio company), the data acquired by COSMO-SkyMed satellites, which enable the development of services and applications for maritime security, border control and environmental monitoring
