The Global Satellite Operators Association (GSOA) is a Belgian nonprofit trade association representing the worldwide satellite ecosystem. Founded in 2002 and transformed from the EMEA Satellite Operators Association into a global body in 2021, it now brings together operators across all orbits and applications with manufacturers, launch providers, ground-segment companies, and other service providers. GSOA coordinates industry positions on spectrum, regulation, non-terrestrial networks, connectivity, safety, space sustainability, and digital inclusion while representing the sector before international, regional, and national institutions.
