Better Satellite World: Providing Aid, Improving Lives and Revealing the Truth Through Satellite Connectivity

In this Better Satellite World podcast, SSPI's Lou Zacharilla speaks with representatives of the three 2023 recipients of Better Satellite World Awards. Libby Barr, Chief Operating Officer of Avanti Communications, Fernando Carballal, Associate Director of Product Development and Operational Partnerships for the International Rescue Committee (IRC) and Stephen Wood, Senior Director of the Maxar News Bureau join Lou to discuss their projects, goals and making a better world for all. Libby Barr is the Chief Operating Officer at Avanti Communications (“Avanti”) and a member of its Executive Committee. Joining in January 2019, Libby is responsible for the development and growth of the Carrier, Mobility and Enterprise customers along with overseeing the end-to-end customer experience across Avanti's Sales and Marketing departments. Libby is passionate about connecting some of the hardest-to-reach communities in the world. Key milestones include the connectivity of over 1,000 villages in Africa, to which Avanti has made significant investments to provide satellite infrastructure and digital connectivity in rural and ultra-rural areas. Along with her team, Libby's focus will be on connecting a further 10,000 villages and schools over the next five years. Prior to Avanti, Libby was at BT for nine years. As Managing Director of Customer Care, she was a key member of the BT Consumer Leadership Team who grew the company's revenue by more than £1.2bn in five years. Libby was also responsible for the strategic vision, leadership and transformation of a 10,000 strong Customer Care organisation across more than 30 sites worldwide. Libby began her career at Vodafone. At the company for 22 years, she held positions in both the global and UK organisations, leading the Enterprise Sales and Service organisations. In addition, Libby was a Trustee of the Vodafone Foundation. Avanti Communications' rural solution is a groundbreaking satellite service designed to bridge the digital divide by connecting ultra-rural villages in Nigeria for the first time. This innovative solution has proven key to the Nigerian Communications Commission's (NCC) National Broadband Plan of 2020, which sets out two national goals: to achieve 90% population coverage and a penetration rate of 70% by 2025. Avanti Rural solution uses advanced satellite technology to extend mobile network coverage to the hardest-to-reach areas of Nigeria, that would be impossible to reach using traditional terrestrial infrastructure. This off-grid service is a game-changer in the telecommunications industry, providing cellular services to the most remote communities, and in turn, promoting digital inclusion and socio-economic development. As of 2023, Avanti has deployed over 500 ultra-rural sites in 21 Nigerian states, providing 2G and 3G connectivity to 2.5 million Nigerians. All these areas previously had no connectivity, with residents forced to travel on foot or by local bus to the nearest towns with coverage just to use their mobile phones. Fernando Carballal is Associate Director of Product Development and Operational Partnerships for the International Rescue Committee (IRC), an organization that helps people affected by humanitarian crises—including the climate crisis—to survive, recover and rebuild their lives. He is also Co-Founder and Innovation Consultant of Impactspace, which works with businesses, NGOs, government and academia internationally to explore and commercialize new impactful ideas. Before joining IRC and co-founding Impactspace, Fernando served as Head of Design and User Engagement for Sen and as a Designer for a variety of companies, including Satellite Applications Catapult, Thingmaker and Cyclehoop Ltd. He is a graduate of London Metropolitan University with a Masters in Product Design and the University of East London with a Bachelors of Science in Architecture. The Mapping Invisible Populations project is an innovative initiative by the International Rescue Committee (IRC), created in collaboration with Flowminder and Humanitarian Open Street Map. The project was developed in 2023 with the central aim of providing support services to hard-to-reach populations. This initiative primarily targets fragile and conflict-affected areas which may receive less medical and other humanitarian support. Using satellite imagery mapping techniques and GIS methodologies provided by its partners, the Mapping Invisible Populations project gathers satellite and spatial data and combines it with population estimates analyzed by its partners to determine the location of these underserved populations. Subsequently, these estimates are verified by community informants for further corroboration. The objective is to identify populations living in areas that are large enough to justify IRC investing resources, time, and risk to provide medical and humanitarian assistance. Stephen Wood is the Senior Director of the Maxar News Bureau. He has more than 30 years of experience analyzing satellite imagery and performing all-source analysis for government, commercial and media customers. Mr. Wood joined DigitalGlobe (which became Maxar Intelligence) in 2000, after 14 years in the U.S. government, where he held a range of senior imagery intelligence-associated positions. He was the co-founder of AllSource Analysis, an imagery analytic company based in Colorado. He has an in-depth record of creating geospatial and all-source material and has briefed audiences extensively throughout his career, including high-ranking government officials, CEOs and the media on geospatial information and high current interest issues. The Maxar News Bureau is a unique partnership program that collaborates with renowned media organizations worldwide, focusing on using technology for social good and global transparency. The program is operated by Maxar Intelligence, a leading provider of secure, precise geospatial intelligence. The Bureau leverages the business' satellite imagery, analytics and expertise to complement quality journalism and provide irrefutable evidence in an era where credibility is critical. The Maxar News Bureau has provided high-resolution satellite imagery and analysis for notable reports like The New York Times' 2020 Pulitzer Prize-winning report on Russia's use of shadow warfare and the 2019 Emmy-winning “One Building, One Bomb” story, which reconstructed a chemical attack in Syria. The Bureau's satellite imagery allowed the Times reporters to enhance their storytelling and lend credibility to their reports. In the realm of current events, information is traditionally released by the media, governments or organizations directly involved in the event. The Maxar News Bureau serves as an auxiliary source, providing supporting evidence or context to unfolding situations.

At 17 years old, inventor and entrepreneur Joe Landolina invented a medical breakthrough that is transforming at-home and in-patient wound care. Landolina conceived an adhesive hemostatic gel composed of plant-based polymers that could adhere to a wound site and simultaneously support the natural clotting process. To refine and manufacture the gel technology he invented, Landolina with his partner Isaac Miller founded Cresilon (formerly Suneris), which has since grown into a medical device company headquartered in Brooklyn, New York. As Chief Executive Officer, Landolina is now gearing up to take the company's proprietary product VETIGEL to the veterinary market-offering a faster, more reliable solution in hemostasis for veterinarians performing both routine treatments and complex operations in clinics every day. As the face of Cresilon, Landolina meets with investors, clinicians, and industry key opinion leaders, alike, to keep a pulse on the market, meanwhile leading all strategic initiatives internally.Landolina's research background is in biocompatible polymers; in 2013, he was selected as a Barry M. Goldwater Scholar in recognition of his outstanding potential in scientific research. In 2014, Landolina was named a TED Global Fellow and has since traveled around the world representing Cresilon. Landolina is also a former Innovation Consultant at his alma mater, NYU Tandon School of Engineering, and on the board of eLab NYC, which supports the development of NYC as the new world leader in life sciences entrepreneurship.Joe Landolina is a force of nature! He was doing chemistry experiments as a teenager, and ended up starting his company, Cresilon, at 17-years old.  We talked about his back story and how he learned management and leadership skills, as well as plenty of ups and downs along the way. We also talk about where he got his first clean room (hint: you can buy one too) and what happened when he tried an experiment on his cousin.Learn more about Cresilon | Websitehttps://www.cresilon.com/Connect with Alisa!

Strategic growth is about more than just growth for growth's sake. It's about identifying the most efficient path for profitability and sustainability and then pursuing it. Our guest today, Gale Crosley, is a Strategic Growth and Innovation Consultant who has helped countless growth-oriented CPA and Accounting firms overcome barriers and achieve high-performing strategic growth. Crosley started her career as a CPA with Arthur Andersen before transitioning to technology sales. After the dot-com bust, she started her own growth consultancy to help CPA firms grow strategically. We discuss strategic growth within the CPA and broader professional services profession, including what firms can learn from traditional corporate enterprises and how technological innovations like AI are changing the industry. Gale explains that strategic growth is not just top-line growth but also about the bottom line. It's not growth for growth's sake; rather, it's about growing profitability. She also breaks down the biggest impediments to strategic growth, like unprecedented staffing shortages and adapting to revenue cycles.Finally, Gale notes that firms must shift their strategy as the market changes. Firms need to specialize and innovate to stay relevant. Gale believes private equity and technology are disrupters to the CPA profession that will accelerate the need to evolve current business strategies. Gale advises managing partners to focus on strategic growth and specialization instead of riding the rollercoaster of market conditions. By being forward-thinking and focusing on strategic growth, firms can achieve the most profit and the fastest growth.Key Points From This Episode: Get to know Gale, her deep experience, and her work as a Strategic Growth Consultant.Why she pivoted from accounting early in her career.How she partners with CPA firms to transform them into high-growth environments.The concept of strategic growth and how it is accomplished.How strategic growth is the most profitable and fastest growth and why it is not growth for growth's sake. Broadening geographic reach and its impact on opportunity and competition.An overview of the unprecedented disruption within the CPA profession and how private equity is changing the landscape so radically.Why strategic growth is the movement from an individual contribution, book of business, tactical generalist to a leader-driven and strategic specialist.The impediments to strategic growth that Gale has observed. What firms should be doing with increased revenue levels to optimize for strategic growth.How leadership and organizational structure can foster (or impede) strategic growth.The differences between what drives corporate America, private equity firms, and CPA firms.Combining the best parts of corporate America with the best parts of the CPA profession.Advice for firms on approaching industry changes and the role of private equity.Gale's predictions for what the industry will look like in ten years.Gale CrosleyGale Crosley on LinkedInConnection BuildersAlex Drost LinkedIn

Solar and wind energy used to be considered speculative, prototype ideas of no-carbon energy solutions. Yet the enormous growth seen in these two forms of renewable energy over the last decade has soared past pessimistic predictions. Off the back of this success, the question for other promising innovations is how can they do the same? How can we apply the lessons learned from the success of solar and wind energy to other innovations?

What comes to mind when you think about innovation? Creating something new from nothing. But does the word innovation push people away from doing it, thinking they don't have the skills? Our guest on the podcast thinks so, and that's why he uses the word reinvention instead. And that, reinventing, is exactly what he did with his own career after retiring from professional rugby. Today, we hear about his fascinating journey.This week on The Melting Pot, we learned from the author of Undisruptible, and host of The Innovation Show, Aidan McCullen.

Anisha Motwani as I know her is a lady who has stormed many norms, and has been instrumental in disrupting and rebuilding brands as an independent Brand, Digital & Innovation Consultant, and Founder of Storm the Norm Ventures. She is also author of the book with the same title, "Storm the Norm" – a first-of-its-kind collection of contemporary stories of truly inspiring businesses and brands from India that either wrote or rewrote the norms of their respective industries. Anisha very confidently says "If you love your brand; set it free". They are like babies, give them the right purpose, and the right value system and then see them blossom. She works very passionately in the space of women empowerment and insists that every woman should make herself and her work visible without blurring the roles. As per Anisha when we work whole heartedly and authentically, our personal brand gets built naturally and organically, just we need to be believe in our unique voice to get noticed in the clutter. There is a lot of personal and professional experiences and learnings that Anisha has shared without mincing any words.

Kenny is an innovation consultant originally from Nigeria and living in Uganda. During episode 40 of the Are we home yet podcast listen to my interview with Kenny, an expat from Nigeria, who talks about his time in Uganda. Kenny also speaks about the best decision he ever made, which was joining the AIESEC network. “I've met so many friends outside of work through AIESEC,” Kenny says. Listen to the interview now!Kenny has gotten to know so many people from joining the AIESEC network and can't stress enough how important it is to network and of course spend time with friends, and get to know one another. The importance of social networking offline Social networking offline is extremely important. In the physical world, face-to-face interactions are the norm, and the benefits of social networking are evident. For example, research has shown that people who have strong social ties are more likely to live longer and be happier than those who don't. In addition, face-to-face interactions allow for the exchange of nonverbal cues that can help build trust and rapport. However, in the online world, social networking often takes the form of text-based interactions. While this can be helpful in some ways, it also has its limitations. For instance, it's difficult to build trust with someone you've never met in person. In addition, the lack of nonverbal cues can make it easy to misread someone's tone or intentions. As a result, social networking offline is still the best way to build strong relationships. During his time in Uganda, Kenny, has made good friends with his local coworkers and it's made all the difference in finding joy in his new home of Uganda. The time in Uganda Time in Uganda is a bit different than time in most other places. For one thing, the sun rises and sets much earlier here. As a result, people tend to wake up early and go to bed early. This can be a bit of an adjustment for visitors from more temperate climates. In addition, Uganda is located on the equator, so there is very little variation in the length of days throughout the year. The country does experiences two wet seasons, which can impact travel plans. Overall, Uganda is a great place to visit, and its unique time zone is just one of the many things that make it special. The local time in Uganda is GMT+3. Uganda is located in the Eastern Africa Time Zone. Eastern Africa Time (EAT) is 3 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Uganda spans two time zones, but the country currently only observes one time zone (EAT) due to its proximity to the equator. The westernmost part of Uganda near the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) observes Central Africa Time (CAT), which is 2 hours behind EAT. However, this part of Uganda does not currently observe daylight saving time. For most of Uganda, the current time in Uganda is EAT (GMT+3). Despite its relatively small size, Uganda offers a wide range of experiences for visitors. From wildlife-watching safaris to trekking through stunning mountains and forests, there is something for everyone to enjoy in this beautiful country. Beautiful Uganda Beautiful Uganda is a country located in East Africa. It is bordered by Kenya to the east, Sudan to the north, the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west, and Rwanda and Tanzania to the south. The country is beautiful, with lush green mountains, sweeping plains, and rivers flowing through its valleys. The climate in Uganda is very pleasant. Uganda is a relatively small country, but there is a significant amount of variation in climate across different regions. In general, the north and east of the country tend to be hotter and more humid than the south and west. The capital city of Kampala has a tropical savanna climate, with average temperatures ranging from 21 to 28 degrees Celsius. The highest temperatures are typically seen during February and March.

Investing Tips (0:00:00) Do you like doing things that will help you in the long term? Are you a risk taker who's not afraid to make a leap of faith? Well chances are you are either the next James Bond, or you have taken up investing. While it can sometimes be faith-filled, investing in the right place at the right time can be a great financial decision for anyone who is willing to try it out. The guest we have with us today worked closely under Thomas Rowe Price Jr., one of investment's greatest success stories who founded the T Rowe Price group and went on to make millions if not billions of dollars from his work. Cornelius Bond, a technology and healthcare venture capitalist from San Francisco, joins us to talk about the legendary investor he worked under and give us investment tips in today's economy. The Art of Gathering (0:15:12) With the holidays in full swing, many of us are shuffling off to various work parties, family reunions, and class events. Am I the only one that spends ten minutes before going to one of these promising myself that I'll have a good time? What is it that makes our gatherings so dull? In a world of fast-paced communication and instant connection, taking time to meet and interact as human beings has never been so important. But how can we make these gatherings meaningful? With us is Priya Parker, a trained conflict resolution specialist and author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters. Holiday Blues (0:32:31) For many, the holidays represent a time of tradition and cheer. But for many others, the holidays are a sensitive time that bring back pain and elicit loneliness. This sadness is commonly known as the “holiday blues.” We've invited psychologist Dr. Kristin Bianchi on the show to explain why we get the holiday blues, how we can cope with them, and how we can help our suffering loved ones during this time. Seasonal Clothing (0:50:36) Wintertime is here, and one of my favorite parts about this time of year is the warm, cozy, winter wardrobe that we get to don as we embrace the cold air around us. But do you ever feel like it can be a little tedious to change out your warmer weather clothes and go up into the attic or down to the basement and pull out all those bulky coats for you and your family? Certain parts of the country can get pretty cold, and investing in these winter necessities can also get pretty expensive. We are joined by Amanda Valentine as she will address all these topics about winter wardrobe and more.  Why Being Ruthless Can Be a Good Thing (1:07:40) Webster's Dictionary defines the word “ruthless” as “having no pity: MERCILESS, CRUEL.” Obviously, this word is one we usually apply to people with harmful intentions and don't have great feelings toward. But, according to Fortune 500 Leadership and Innovation Consultant, Val Wright, “Being ‘thoughtfully ruthless' helps you manage your time, energy and resources well. This goes for your business and your personal life. Once you become sensibly selfish with your time, you'll experience growth in all areas.” She's here to tell us how to start. Competing and Coping with Grief (1:24:45) Anita Coyle's life suddenly changed when her husband of 20 years died of a rare heart condition last January. As difficult as it was, Anita knew that she had to get back on her feet in hopes of running the Xterra triathlon that she and her husband had been planning for. Despite her incredible obstacles and odds, Anita was able to compete in the race and went on to win Xterra's warrior of the year award. Here to tell us how she used training to cope with her grief is Anita Coyle. Anita is an athlete, mother, and podcaster.
