Brand Slogan

The modern world is overflowing with the information. Even a simple search can provide us the answers.

However, our hearts are not stirred by what is known;

it is the unknown that excites and arouses us. SKY Perfect JSAT Group works in the space field,

making its potential for growth as vast as the expanse of outer space.

We want to be a company that can turn the unknown into infinite possibilities.

These aspirations of SKY Perfect JSAT are encapsulated in

"Our Unlimited Vision, Your Practical Value."

Mission Space for your Smile

Toward a world where uncertainty

turns to peace of mind, difficulty turns to ease, and interest turns to passion

"Space for your Smile" captures our core vision for the future,

where spaces of all kinds-outer space, land, air, and sea,

as well as communities, family living rooms, and other places people call their own-beam with smiles.

From the glints of everyday happiness to the happiness that awaits in the future, we strive to create a world that leads to a brighter tomorrow for everyone.

Geostationary satellites: connect anytime, at all times

In 1989, SKY Perfect JSAT succeeded in launching JCSAT-1, Japan's first-ever private communications satellite. Since then, we have provided stable communications from space-in line with our mantra of "connect anytime, at all times"-not only in normal times but also in disaster.

Satellite data x AI: utilizing data from low earth orbit satellites

Our information services draw on various types of data that can be collected from our low earth orbit satellites, including images and positional information, and are used in the fields of security and disaster prevention. We are also seeking to open up new markets, in the fields of finance, insurance, logistics, and agriculture, forestry, and fisheries.

HAPS: a relay station in the sky

In order to provide communications services with remote islands and other regions where the establishment of terrestrial lines is problematic, we are aiming to position a high-altitude platform station (HAPS) in the stratosphere.

We also intend to use HAPS to provide communications services for remote sensing, and for mobilities, including drones, AAM (Advanced Air Mobility), and others.

Contributing to making a supersmart society a reality

Building information and communications infrastructure that supports society and people's daily lives.

The communications infrastructure of our Space Business is currently based on conventional geostationary satellites. However, in 2021, in partnership with Nip- pon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (hereinafter "NTT"), we commenced development on a "Space Integrated Computing Network," capable of providing diverse communications infrastructure according to differing needs.

The Space Integrated Computing Network entails building innovative communications networks and earth environment data collection networks that cover all of space, and seeks to contribute to making a supersmart society a reality.
