About
TELETEL is one of the few European companies established in the EGSE space market, having as customers most European space subsystems manufacturers. The evolution of its EGSE products to new technologies is a key factor for maintaining its market position and for opening new markets. R&D activities in this direction is the cornerstone for maintaining excellence and market status/growth. In the SOPHOS project, TELETEL will perform R&D activities in the area of EGSEs, which is the main business line of the company. As such, the SOPHOS R&D activities for TELETEL are fully aligned with the core company R&D strategy.
From the commercial point of view, the addressable market for TELETEL is the AIT/AIV market of test systems and EGSEs for satellites/spacecrafts. Its participation to the SOPHOS project will benefit the company twofold. First it will support maintaining its market share to the EGSE/AIT space market. Secondly, it will enable the company to enter the new promising EGSE/AIT market of nano/micro/small satellites in which at the moment it has limited presence. Finally, the partnership with DSI mainly and DLR, will allow TELETEL to support both companies in future commercial activities which will be based on the SOPHOS results.
