Marlink has acquired the customer contracts and assets from Global Eagle Entertainment (GEE), which has emerged from Chapter 11 restructuring.

As part of this deal, Marlink has taken over more than 450 VSAT sites in five continents that serve large humanitarian/NGO, Embassy, Oil and Gas and Mining customers, as well as GEE’s African fixed site land business.
