Gilat Satcom to sponsor mining summit in Lusaka
Telecommunications group Gilat Satcom on Monday said it was set to sponsor the second yearly Great Rift Valley Mining Summit, where it planned to unveil new mining-focused mobile satellite services and technologies.
The summit, held from March 13 to 14, in Lusaka, Zambia, would see a gathering of government Ministers, international mining companies, investors, international development agencies and solution providers discussing how to unlock the value of untapped and undiscovered reserves in the region.
“The mining industry has always been a challenge for communications providers as it has multiple communications needs but is located in remote areas where no telecoms infrastructure exists,” Gilat Satcom marketing director Eran Yoran said in a statement.
The group’s new solutions were cost effective and easy to deploy, maintain and use, he said.
Gilat Satcom’s new offerings were specifically designed for the mining industry across Africa, where the group operated a satellite network and fibre loops across Tanzania, Zambia, Malawi, Namibia and Mozambique.
