“All of us at Globalstar are excited about our new relationship with Arion Communication Co., Ltd. and we anticipate this is just the beginning of a long and profitable relationship that solidifies and builds our presence in Eastern Asia,” said Peter Dalton, Chief Executive Officer, Globalstar, Inc.  “This joint venture combines Arion’s expertise in delivering maritime messaging and vessel monitoring solutions with Globalstar’s ability to provide high quality and affordable mobile satellite services to areas beyond the reach of terrestrial wireless communications.  Together we look forward to further expanding the market for both our Simplex and duplex mobile satellite services and SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger consumer products throughout Korea and the surrounding area.”

“We are very delighted to partner with Globalstar in establishing the joint venture company, Globalstar Asia Pacific,” explained Tony Park, CEO of Arion Communication Co. Ltd., and Globalstar Asia Pacific.  “We are confident that with the launch of the second-generation satellites beginning this summer, Globalstar will bring a huge paradigm shift in the market, having previously attained the single largest mobile satellite services market share position in the region.  We also expect the new SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger and next-generation high speed duplex data communications services, which have not been provided in Korea before, will play a key role in expanding Globalstar’s market share exponentially.”
