COVINGTON, La.: Globalstar, Inc., (Nasdaq: GSAT) (“Globalstar” or the “Company”), a next-generation telecommunications infrastructure and technology provider, announces the grand opening of its state-of-the-art Satellite Operations Control Center (“SOCC”) at its headquarters in Covington, La., on March 17. This milestone marks a significant expansion of Globalstar’s operational capabilities and reinforces the Company’s strategic growth as it advances next-generation satellite and connectivity solutions.

The grand opening event was attended by notable representatives and local dignitaries, including House Majority Leader Steve Scalise and FCC Chairman Brendan Carr. The event featured live music and a selection of Louisiana cuisine, offering attendees a taste of the region’s rich culinary heritage while marking the occasion with local flair.

“We are grateful to Leader Scalise and Chairman Carr for celebrating this significant milestone with Globalstar,” said Dr. Paul E. Jacobs, Globalstar CEO. “This expansion underscores Globalstar’s mission to deliver innovation and industry leading solutions, as well as our commitment to the state of Louisiana, the local workforce and regional economy.”

The SOCC represents a pivotal investment in Globalstar’s future, enabling enhanced satellite fleet management, improved network performance, and preparation for new satellite constellations that will further solidify the company’s leadership in global satellite communications.

Globalstar has been headquartered in Covington, La., since 2010, and the SOCC opening continues to establish the region as a center of technological innovation. Over 60 percent of Globalstar’s employee base is local, with plans to hire 75 new positions from Louisiana by the end of the year.
