SVG Europe welcomes Airbus Defence and Space as new Gold Sponsor

In the first of a wave of new sponsorship deals set to be announced in the post-NAB period, Airbus Defence and Space (until recently branded under the Astrium name) has confirmed that it is to join the ranks of SVG Europe’s Gold sponsors.

Joining through its French office, Airbus Defence and Space works with a broad range of satellite network operators to offer a full portfolio of mobile and fixed communication services. The company has a long track record in designing and delivering innovative global satcom solutions to customers at sea, on land and in flight.

Explaining the company’s decision to join the SVG Europe community, Rhys Morgan, head of sports & cultural events for Airbus Defence and Space – Satellite Communications, comments: “We want to network with partners and peers across the sports community. SVG Europe provides a good opportunity for us to regularly meet and exchange ideas in the wider community. Equally, we need to stay relevant to the market, and the access to new ideas, methods and technologies that we’ll get through the group will be invaluable.”
