Satellite connectivity makes all the difference in education, and bridging the gap to deliver high-speed internet to schools in hard-to-reach places creates the opportunity for every student to soar. In this SSPI-WISE Presents podcast, based on the panel conducted at the September 25 meeting of SSPI-WISE, we hear a roundtable discussion from leaders of NIGCOMSAT who share insights on how they are advancing digital inclusion and transforming education through satellite broadband. This episode is moderated by Ruth Okoh, Founder/Managing Director of Spaceboss Aerospace Consulting Ltd., and features Engr. Florence Ibrahim, Satellite Control & Operations, NIGCOMSAT, Engr. Opeyemi Kareem – Product & Presales Engineer, NIGCOMSAT, and Ifeoma Maureen Nzekwe, Deputy General Manager & Program Coordinator, NIGCOMSAT.
This roundtable conversation is part of the Signal to Soar campaign. Whether separated by distance, infrastructure, or inequality, too many students remain disconnected from the full promise of education. Satellite connectivity helps bridge that gap, delivering high-speed internet to schools in hard-to-reach places—and bringing the world to students who are otherwise far from opportunity. From live-streaming lessons and global classrooms to virtual museum tours and cultural exchanges, satellites expand access to knowledge and connection. With the right signal, every student can soar.
