SSPI Adds Some Hindsight To Their Exec Board

March 17, 2021

Space & Satellite Professionals International (SSPI) has announced that James Hinds, the CEO of Airbus OneWeb Satellites, has been appointed to serve on the association’s Board of Directors.

James Hinds (photo above) was named CEO of Airbus OneWeb Satellites in January of 2021 after serving as the company’s COO since the end of 2019. Prior to joining the company, he spent four years with Airbus Defence and Space in Toulouse, France, where he was responsible for strategic planning of its Space Systems business.

Before that, he worked with Airbus and Boeing (and predecessor companies) in satellite engineering, production and project management. Notable achievements include his responsibilities as Airbus program manager for the Hylas 1 satellite (a joint Airbus/India Space Research Organisation program); as director responsible for payload research and development at Airbus including digital processors, active antennas and amplifier development; and as the lead verification engineer of Boeing’s 601HP satellite series.

“We are fortunate to have gained James as a member of our Board,” said executive director Robert Bell. “His career spans from the traditional space and satellite business as we have long known it to the next generation of large-scale constellations that will transform the value proposition of the industry.”
