Abstract ：Overview

Telefónica has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with OneWeb to improve connectivity services across Europe and Latin America. Both companies will provide their expertise, market traction, and capabilities to enhance connectivity in remote areas, SMBs, and enterprise and industrial segments. The partnership approach seems to be the right one for Telefónica, especially looking back at the experience and lessons learnt from the SIGFOX investment. However, it is important that the agreement goes beyond a pure commercial agreement and aims to position Telefónica as a leader in 5G connectivity thanks to the non-terrestrial network (NTN) segment, as well as specific solutions for industries that may require satellite access or backup as part of the end-to-end solution.
