At @IAC2026Antalya, @massimoc_square, Managing Director of #LeonardoSpace, joined the GNF Session – Heads of Industry: One-on-One Conversations, sharing his perspective on the transformation of the Space sector and the evolution of Earth observation. Space is rapidly evolving. For #Leonardo, this means combining Space capabilities with digital technologies such as cloud, AI and cyber resilience, while helping strengthen the wider ecosystems. In Earth observation, the focus is shifting from spatial resolution alone to the ability to deliver useful information fast. High revisit rates, low latency, connectivity, cloud and AI are becoming essential to turn satellite data into actionable information. These capabilities come together in Leonardo’s new Earth observation constellation, designed to deliver persistent, near real-time information for applications ranging from emergency response and critical infrastructure to precision farming — turning data from Space into action on Earth. @telespazio | @e_geos #IAC2026

Four days in Paris, bringing together the global Space community to discuss how the sector is evolving — from Connectivity and Earth Observation to defence and security. At World Space Business Week and the Space Defense & Security Summit (@nvs_summits), #LeonardoSpace, together with @telespazio and @e_geos, contributed to the debate on some of the key elements shaping the future of Space. 🔹 @massimoc_square, Managing Director of #LeonardoSpace, focused on what Europe needs to turn its technological strengths into an always more competitive and sustainable Space economy: greater scale, continued investment in R&D and industrial capacity, stronger integration across the European value chain, and the capacity to bring innovation to global markets. Building a more integrated European space ecosystem is essential to achieving the critical mass needed to compete globally and sustain long-term growth. 🔹 Gianluca Baldassarre, SVP Satellite Communications at Telespazio, addressed the rapid transformation of satellite communications. New constellations, operators and customers are reshaping the market, while sovereignty, interoperability and the ability to evolve services rapidly are becoming increasingly important — particularly for critical infrastructures and areas where satellite connectivity can make a tangible difference. 🔹 At the Space Defense & Security Summit, Marco Brancati, SVP Technology and Innovation Governance at Leonardo Space, highlighted the growing role of Space within the multidomain environment. Earth Observation, connectivity and Space Domain Awareness are becoming increasingly interconnected, making technologies such as onboard processing, intersatellite links and multi-mission ground segments — together with interoperability by design — key enablers for future systems. 🔹 Milena Lerario, CEO of e-GEOS, brought an Earth Observation data perspective to the discussion, highlighting how SAR is becoming a primary source of information, providing continuous observations independently of daylight and weather conditions. The integration of SAR and optical imagery enables a more comprehensive understanding of events, while customer demand is increasingly shifting towards information, analytics and operational services rather than raw data and complex processing chains. #WSBW26 #SDSS26
