"The whole is far greater than the sum of the parts—especially when telcos and satellite operators work together." — Gareth Kentish, Alvatross In this episode of Technology Reseller News, Publisher Doug Green speaks with Gareth Kentish of Alvatross about how the company is enabling global connectivity through the convergence of terrestrial and satellite communications—powered by open standards, modular software, and strategic industry collaboration. Alvatross, a five-year-old startup backed by Spanish systems integrator Satec, blends the agility of a tech disruptor with the resources and telecom experience of an established player. Kentish explains that Alvatross’ “Lego block” approach to operational support systems allows telcos and satellite operators to add, modify, and scale services without costly, monolithic system overhauls. A key focus is enabling hybrid terrestrial-satellite models to ensure continuity of communications—even in disaster scenarios—through projects such as TM Forum’s “Tech for Good” Catalyst, which demonstrated how first responders could rapidly activate connectivity via a user-friendly marketplace. Kentish highlights several industry drivers: The growing importance of LEO satellite constellations and seamless integration with terrestrial networks Open digital architectures to reduce cost-to-serve and accelerate service innovation The role of AI in enhancing operations—provided operators first address data quality The need for collaboration to unlock opportunities across telecom and satellite ecosystems Looking ahead, Kentish sees major opportunities for MSPs, MSSPs, and service providers who embrace convergence, modularity, and partnerships. He emphasizes that success will depend not just on technology, but also on cultivating the right culture, collaboration, and consensus—both within companies and across the industry.
