Deloitte India's Aditya Khaitan Khaitan provided valuable insights into the latest trends and forecasts shaping the technology, media, and telecommunications (TMT) sectors during a keynote address at the Voice&Data Telecom Leadership Forum. With his extensive consulting experience in the telecommunications industry, Khaitan shared his expertise on emerging markets and cutting-edge technologies, offering key predictions for the industry.
One of the trends discussed was the growth of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites globally. Khaitan projected that the number of LEO satellites would exceed 5,000 by the end of 2023, with expectations of 7 to 10 networks operating 40,000 to 50,000 satellites by 2030. In India, the broadband satellite market is predicted to reach USD 1.9 billion by the end of 2023, attracting multiple players vying for licenses. He emphasised the importance of enhanced license approval frameworks, faster spectrum allocation, cybersecurity measures, and space situational awareness to ensure the success and safety of satellite operations.
