On April 24, 2026, Thales Alenia Space engaged with the Regional African Satellite Communication Organisation (RASCOM) at the NewSpace Africa Conference, envisioning possible collaboration for the African space industry. RASCOM Director General Timothy Ashong hosted high-level meetings with Thales Alenia Space representatives during the conference, reinforcing collaboration between African satellite stakeholders and global industry leaders. Earlier on April 24, Thales Alenia Space and Airbus Defence and Space confirmed their joint forces on a new geostationary satellite mission for Poland's Ministry of Defence, which forms part of the European Commission’s ‘Readiness 2030’ plan to offer secure communications for the armed forces. This initiative followed the signing of an industrial cooperation agreement on April 22 by Thales Alenia Space, a joint venture between Thales and Leonardo, along with Airbus Defence and Space and Polish company RADMOR, to develop the geostationary defence telecommunications satellite. The agreement was announced during a high-level ceremony attended by Polish Defence Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz and French Armed Forces Minister Catherine Vautrin.
