This is our last interview of the year before we start our annual 3 week Winter Series podcasts where we feature lectures or news events from other creators. We’ll be back with a new interview on January 14.Ok, my guest this week is Chad English who is an Industrial Technology Advisor for the Industrial Research Assistance Program at the National Research Council. I ran into Chad at the recent Canadian Space Summit where he was a speaker in the “I have 50Mbps! Now what?” session. That session focused on the coming broadband internet to rural and remote locations via Low Earth Orbit satellite constellations like the one Canada's Telesat is trying to build. Other companies looking to this marketplace include OneWeb, SpaceX and others.Chad and I discuss what LEO satellite constellations will mean to those people living in rural and remote communities along with new business opportunities that will be available.Listen in.
