Unlocking Economic Opportunity Through Commercial Satellite Services
Details
Thursday, July 23, 2026
Six years ago, Amazon unveiled its plans to build a constellation of 3,236 low Earth satellites, designed to provide high-speed, low-latency internet to consumers, corporations and governments, offering connections through square-shaped terminals. Since then, following a new rebrand from Project Kuiper to Amazon Leo, the company is continuing to build upon its mission of delivering high-speed internet access to millions of businesses, governments, and other organizations operating in places without reliable connectivity. Meridian and Amazon will convene U.S. policymakers and senior foreign diplomats for a discussion on the future of Amazon Leo and provide updates on the continued launch of this marquee initiative followed by a reception.
