ESA Telecommunication Newsletter No. 02/05

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that ESA Telecom is a co-organiser of the '23rd AIAA International Communications Satellite Systems Conference' and the '11th Ka and Broadband Communications Conference', to be held at the Aurelia Convention Centre in Rome, Italy, from 25 to 28 September 2005.
The aim of these two Conferences is to explore major current and anticipated industrial trends. Industry leaders and technical experts from around the World are coming together to discuss important current topics, ranging from the impact of HDTV on the satellite industry to the latest developments in technology. Over 300 papers on a wide range of topics will be presented by participants from 27 countries.

I very much hope to be able to welcome you at the Conferences.
Kind regards,
