Board Member and previous Executive Director of the Satcoms Innovation Group, Martin Coleman, has been awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Strategies in Satellite Ground Segment Conference and Exhibition.
Recognised for his tireless efforts to enable industry-wide collaboration, especially around mitigating Radio Frequency Interference and STEAM engagement. Anyone that has met Martin will understand his passion and drive for the industry and those initiatives he believes in.
As Executive Director of SIG, Martin put RFI firmly on the agenda and was responsible for getting modem manufacturers to not only talk to each other, but to work together to define a technology for inserting a Carrier ID into equipment. More recently, he has been extremely active in engaging with pupils, especially at his local school, trying to share some of his passion and enthusiasm for the industry with the next generation.
We cannot think of a more deserving person to have been recognised with this award. Congratulations Martin!
