Skylo

Skylo Technologies is a global Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) service provider founded in 2017 by aerospace engineers and scientists from MIT and Stanford. The company has developed a new way of networking communications using existing geostationary satellites to deliver affordable, continuous satellite connectivity for smartphones and IoT cellular devices — anywhere on Earth, without new satellite infrastructure. Skylo's NTN NB-IoT technology serves industries including maritime, agriculture, transportation, and consumer devices. Its satellite connectivity powers features such as the Satellite SOS on Google Pixel 9 and enables partnerships with major carriers like Vodafone and device makers like Qualcomm. Skylo is headquartered in Mountain View, CA with offices in Bangalore, India and Espoo, Finland, and is backed by Intel Capital, SoftBank, BMW i Ventures, Samsung Catalyst, Seraphim Capital, and others.
