Original: Contesting the Sky – A trend report on Europe’s satellite alternatives to Starlink - Now you can also LISTEN to the tren

A new trend report examines Europe's efforts to build satellite internet alternatives to SpaceX's Starlink, covering tech sovereignty, telecoms and the EU's role, with relevance to Ukraine's connectivity needs. The report is also available in audio format. Discussion reflects growing European concern about dependence on a single US-owned satellite network for critical communications.

Why now: EU tech sovereignty and reduced reliance on Starlink are active policy debates, heightened by the war in Ukraine.
