LEO SATELLITE POLICY SYMPOSIUM (New America), Nov 13, 2025, DC, 11:00 am-2:15 pm ET

New America will hold the “LEO Satellite Policy Symposium” on November 13, 2025 from 11:00 am-2:15 pm ET at its offices at 740 15th St, NW, Washington, DC.

More information is on the event’s website, which says:

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites are transforming global communications, providing a new way to deliver high-speed internet and connectivity services to even the most remote corners of the planet. As private companies and governments race to deploy tens of thousands more LEO satellites, the need for forward-looking policy to facilitate LEO satellite growth, coexistence, competition, and social benefits has become acute.

To facilitate this, New America’s Wireless Future and the International Center for Law & Economics (ICLE) has jointly led a LEO Policy Working Group to study the challenges and opportunities facing this fast-changing sector. The Working Group’s report focuses on three fundamental pillars of the LEO satellite policy challenge:

• Access to spectrum and far more capacity
• Healthy competition in the satellite market
• Bridging the digital divide with expanded connectivity

The event will feature a keynote by Jay Schwarz, Chief of the Federal Communications Commission’s Space Bureau.

Gathering regulatory, industry, and academic experts, this symposium will feature critical discussions about the Working Group’s recommendations and how the FCC and federal policy can guide LEO satellite technology to its fullest potential.
