*Developing Telecoms* spoke with Tim Daly, Business Development Director at Viasat, during Mobile World Congress Barcelona 2026.

Tim explains the company’s approach to Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) and how it’s working with new partners to connect things and people across the world. Driven by standards-based innovation, the convergence of satellite and terrestrial networks will enable devices – from mobile phones to industrial machinery to vehicles – to connect to both networks and drive to a future where connectivity is nearly ubiquitous.
