Viasat CEO Mark Dankberg joins Via Satellite for a Thursday Morning Conversation video interview. Dankberg shares who he’d travel to space with, and how “The Innovator’s Dilemma” has influenced him. 

Dankberg also talks about the impact of the new ViaSat-3 satellites. The second ViaSat-3 satellite will soon enter service followed by a third set to launch this spring and enter service later this year. The conversation also touches on the future of satellite constellations, the role of sovereign systems, and the importance of low-cost bandwidth for autonomous vehicles and national security.
