EUTELSAT: The European Telecommunications Satellite Organisation and the 1992 market

Andrea Caruso

European Management Journal, 1988, vol. 6, issue 4, 408-413

Abstract: In this article, Andrea Caruso makes it clear that EUTELSAT, the European Telecommunications Satellite Organisation, is a working model of a Single European Market in the field of providing and operating communications satellites for public telecommunications in all EEC and some non-EEC Member States. EUTELSAT is transnational and based on co-operation and exchange. This regional telecommunications system achieves considerable economies of scale compared with any national one, as well as technological and commercial benefits like VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) services for the business user, and the ability of in-orbit satellites to be very flexible in terms of ground coverage zones on the Continent. '1992' requires greater inter-country communication and the EUTELSAT network is already in place in Europe to supply it.
