Come Celebrate the Faces of Satellite
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Intelsat, SSPI is launching a search for "The Faces of Satellite”—the people, known and unknown, who are shaping the industry’s present and future. They are not necessarily the movers-and-shakers who appear in the headlines—though some of them might be. Rather they are individuals whose personalities, persistence, vision and sense of mission give extra weight to their personal contributions to the industry’s success. SSPI will be unveiling the first twelve of the Faces of Satellite at the annual Gala on March 11 in Washington, DC. Come to the Gala, and help us celebrate the Faces of Satellite!

Awards at the Gala
Prior to the Gala, at the exclusive Stellar Reception, SSPI will be honoring Maj. Gen. Martin Whelan and Assistant Secretary Madelyn Creedon with 2014 Stellar Awards. During the Gala itself, SSPI will be honoring SpaceX and the Satellite Industry Association with the 2014 Industry Innovator Awards. Get your tickets now, and be there when they are honored!

Attending the Gala
For the first time, SSPI will offer a reception-only ticket, allowing guests to participate in the networking opportunity provided by the Champagne Reception, yet still attend any offsite dinner plans they may have that evening. Click here to purchase tickets.
