Yahsat, a publicly owned company headquartered in the United Arab Emirates, was founded in 2007 and operates with approximately 440 employees. It reported $425.0M in revenue as of 2024. The company primarily offers enterprise connectivity services, functioning as a fixed and mobile satellite services operator providing integrated satellite communications solutions to more than 150 countries across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, South America, Asia and Australasia.
On August 19, 2026, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) formally submitted a filing to the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) for a constellation of 3,240 non-geostationary satellites named ‘Deep Thought’, with Al Yah Satellite Communications making the filing. Previously, on August 17, Pak Datacom shifted the satellite backup connectivity for more than 400 branches of the National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) to UAE-based satellite operator Yahsat. This transition, which ended Pak Datacom's five years of providing satellite backup connectivity to NBP, prompted concerns over data and national security from former Pak Datacom CEO Brigadier (retd) Syed Zulfiqar Ali, as detailed in a letter to the Ministry of IT and Telecommunication.
Yahsat's customers primarily consist of technology, Information and Internet, defense and Space Manufacturing and enterprise connectivity services companies. Examples of Yahsat's customers include Eutelsat, Edge and e&. Yahsat has commercial and technical partners like Eutelsat and Thuraya Telecommunications Company.
