| Although speculation for years has been that Ligado would sell its mid-band spectrum to the highest bidding wireless operator, the company said it has made important strides to realize the full potential of its spectrum and progress toward bringing next-generation services to market. In June 2020, Ligado’s submissions into 3GPP were approved and “enjoyed the support of global vendors such as Nokia, Intel, Samsung, and Sequans,” according to Ligado.“Today is a great day, and now the fun begins. We’ve secured our license, we’ve raised the necessary capital, and we’re in a great position to work with the industry to get this spectrum deployed for 5G to support critical industries across the U.S.,” said Ligado President and CEO Doug Smith in a statement.“This new round of funding from existing and new investors validates our 5G plans to deploy this spectrum,” said Ligado Board Chairman Ivan Seidenberg, who served as chairman of Verizon Communications from 2000 to 2011. “We look forward to making continued progress to build the commercial ecosystem and fully execute on our vision for this spectrum as authorized by the FCC.”Ligado’s plans call for enhancing its satellite service capabilities to include IoT technology. The company said the new financing will allow it to advance the development of “an innovative private network solution that will offer enterprise and industrial sectors the best of both worlds: managed network services run on fully licensed, dedicated spectrum.” -- ???????? | |||
