We innovate. We invest. We work with the best. All so that you can rely on getting a connection wherever and whenever you need it most.
Relied on for over 40 years, our world-leading satellite networks touch every aspect of life, all over the planet, to keep communities, companies and countries connected when it matters most – even during the most turbulent times.
We’re here to keep you safe. Inmarsat was set up in 1979 by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to develop a satellite communications network for protecting lives at sea and we are deeply proud of our safety heritage.
We were the first satellite operator to meet the stringent requirements of the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) and International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) for global safety communications.
Our GMDSS services are closely monitored and overseen by the International Mobile Satellite Organization (IMSO) to ensure compliance with the requirements set by IMO. This ensures that our services consistently meet the required level of reliability and availability for seafarers relying on GMDSS satellite communication. We maintain a strong collaborative relationship with IMSO, engaging in continuous testing and monitoring of our GMDSS services to ensure their ongoing effectiveness and adherence to industry standards.
Today, we have the world’s most advanced and resilient mobile connectivity infrastructure to ensure that our satellite services are not only saving lives but also providing a connectivity lifeline in the most remote and challenging locations.
We serve aviation, maritime, government and enterprise markets with an unparalleled portfolio of services and solutions. Our customers range from airlines and shipping fleet operators to the military and aid agencies, and a host of commercial enterprises, from mining and logistics to agriculture. What they all share in common is the need for highly reliable connectivity, no matter where they are.
We work closely with our global network of technology, manufacturing, resale and wholesale partners. Together we continually innovate; developing and delivering the solutions and services that are shaping the future, transforming industries and enabling a truly global digital society.
With locations across every continent, our world-class services and 24/7/365 customer support are available directly from Inmarsat and via our partners.
Underpinning all this is a fully-funded technology roadmap, which is delivering greater innovation than at any other time in our history.
