COMSYS VSAT2012...So Popular They Moved It


[SatNews] This is the only event covering operational experiences and worldwide customer application examples.

While the COMSYS VSAT2012 Conference isn't until September 12-14, if it's anything like last year's conference which was sold out, it would be wise to sign up soon. In fact, a different location with a new and improved venue – The Lancaster London Hotel will host this the14th annual.

 

COMSYS, the leading satellite communications consultancy and organizer of the premier event for the VSAT industry, is pleased to announce its 2012 conference details.  Building on 13 years of success and a sold-out event last year, COMSYS VSAT2012 will take place from 12-14 September at a new and improved venue – The Lancaster London Hotel (opposite Hyde Park).

At the VSAT2012 Conference, leading innovators in the VSAT market will provide an in-depth insight into future customer requirements and the development of new applications and platforms.

Drawing the industry’s highest profile global speakers and delegates, the COMSYS VSAT Conference is the only event covering operational experiences and customer application examples from all regions of the world.  Whether you need an industry update, information about new technologies and market developments, a chance to network with some of the most influential people in the VSAT business or just some inspiration, the COMSYS VSAT2012 Conference has it covered.  Key segment and application topics include: 

  • Ka-Band Spot Beam Satellites
  • Retail IP Video
  • Broadband Futures
  • Remote Onshore Oil & Gas
  • Consumer Internet Access
  • Mining Production & Exploration
  • Femtocell / Mobile Backhaul

The VSAT2012 conference will be held on 12-14 September, with the usual choice of a VSAT or Satellite workshop on the previous day (11 September). The Lancaster Hotel in central London offers many advantages over our previous venue:

  • Classroom style seating with desks.
  • Faster and more regular transport links to and from Heathrow Airport via the Heathrow Express train to Paddington Station (7 minutes walk from the hotel.)
  • Adjacent to Lancaster Gate tube / metro station.
  • Hotel rooms at The Lancaster are about 25 per cent less expensive and there is a good choice of reasonably priced hotels and ‘Bed & Breakfast’ facilities within easy walk of the venue.
  • The Lancaster also offers a wide range of Syndicate Rooms, plus hospitality suites with wonderful views over Hyde Park and Central London, which you can use to entertain your clients and exhibit your products in a private setting.
The exhibition area is somewhat larger this year in the tea/coffee area adjacent to the main conference meeting room. Please book here here to secure your registration.
