OneWeb
OneWeb LLC, formerly known as WorldVu, is a Channel Islands-based global communications company[1] founded by Greg Wyler. The company plans to launch the OneWeb satellite constellation, a network of 648[2] Low Earth orbit microsatellites, starting in late 2017.[3] Its intended goal is to "reach hundreds of millions of potential users residing in places without [existing] broadband access". It has secured $500 million in funding including launch deals with Virgin Galactic and Arianespace.[4][5] In June 2015, OneWeb entered a deal with Airbus Defence and Space for the construction of its Internet broadcasting satellites after a competition among U.S. and European manufacturers.[6]
