Gateway Communications awarded at 2009 SatComs Star Awards
The reception was attended by senior industry executives on the fringes of the annual SatCom Africa conference in Johannesburg.
For the “Satellite Service Provider of the Year” Award, Gateway was assessed on how it has made a difference to the satellite industry in Africa, customer satisfaction levels, its introduction of new and innovative services and how it has accommodated changing connectivity needs in Africa.
Gateway Communications uses 47 transponders of capacity, principally supplied over Africa by Intelsat with customers in 40 African countries.
“It's fantastic to receive this accolade,” said Peter Gbedemah, CEO of Gateway Communications. “Gateway Communications has in-depth knowledge of the African market with a wealth of local resources and a global infrastructure which make the company really unique. The increasing demand for connectivity across the continent is a great opportunity for us to further expand and strengthen our services and continue to provide our customers with reliable and secure connectivity.”
