Keynotes Set for ISIS 2008


The third annual ISCe Satellite Investment Symposium (also known as ISIS), will be held Oct. 14 at the 3 West Club in New York City, an event that will feature industry executives, financial analysts, private equity representatives, bankers and the media.

The one-day program will kick off with a morning keynote from David Meltzer, senior vice president of American Red Cross International Services. Meltzer, who is responsible for global disaster response operations as well as long-term health programs in more than 20 countries, will speak about the critical role of satellite communications and targeted technologies in meeting the needs of victims, post-disaster responders and aid workers.

Also, Mark Dankberg, chairman and CEO at ViaSat, will provide the closing keynote address. Dankberg's company has been named three times to the Inc. 500 list of fastest growing privately held companies and made Red Herring magazine's "Small Cap 100" list for 2005.

Additionally, after the tumultuous summer and early fall financial crises, a special "Analysts' Spotlight on the Wall Street Meltdown" session has been added to the ISIS program. Analysts on the panel will share views on the rapidly changing financial sector, where the markets are headed, and the implications for the satellite and telecom financial markets.
