Ovzon collaborates with French Government to enable security at Summer Games

June 30, 2024

Ovzon will deliver its integrated SATCOM-as-a-Service solution, including mobile satellite terminals On-The-Pause and On-The-Move, capacity on the high-performing Ovzon 3 satellite, teleport service, and 24/7 dedicated service and support, to a key French government agency tasked with providing security for the 2024 Summer Games.

The Groupe d’intervention de la Gendarmerie nationale (GIGN) will be on the highest alert at multiple locations around France to ensure the security of the Summer Games. Ovzon’s proprietary new satellite, Ovzon 3, will be a key enabler of GIGN’s critical missions, providing trusted, resilient connectivity throughout the Summer Games.

“Ovzon’s advanced mobile satellite terminals and high-performing satellite will support different scenarios and users around the Paris area. Ovzon’s technology and experience is a great match for our needs, and we are looking forward to implementing their SATCOM-as-a-Service,” said General Ghislain Réty, GIGN Commander.

“This is a perfect opportunity to demonstrate the capabilities of our new satellite, Ovzon 3, and the full range of our SATCOM-as-a-Service solutions. We fully appreciate the importance of this mission, and Ovzon’s guaranteed satellite connectivity for both mobile and fixed applications is up to the task,” said Orson Storar, VP of Sales Europe at Ovzon.

Per Norén, CEO of Ovzon, said, “It is our great honor to support this well-renowned French government agency. We are 100% dedicated to supporting their mission-critical requirements for uninterrupted resilient connectivity in Paris this summer.”
