## Resource

Scott Wisniewski, President and Chief Strategy Officer of AST SpaceMobile, joins the program to discuss the company's pivotal shift from an R&D and manufacturing story into a scaled, revenue-generating operating company. With Bluebird satellites launching and commercial service activation on the horizon, Wisniewski outlines the two highest priority objectives: network deployment and building the direct-to-device market alongside global partners. The conversation dives deep into the strategic carrier relationships that form the backbone of the company's go-to-market strategy. Wisniewski explains why SpaceMobile remains carrier-neutral, allowing them to partner with nearly sixty operators globally, representing approximately three billion subscribers. He addresses the recent joint venture between major US carriers, explaining how it validates the market and accelerates the path to ubiquitous connectivity for the SpaceMob. A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to the massive US government pipeline. Wisniewski describes the Project Golden Dome and the dual-use capabilities of the SpaceMobile constellation. As the Space Force budget reaches record highs, the company's ability to deploy the largest phased arrays in low earth orbit offers unique tactical advantages for both communications and non-communications applications like radar. Finally, the episode covers the technical and financial health of the organization. Wisniewski provides updates on the Midland, Texas manufacturing facility, the launch vehicle agnostic strategy, and the path to free cash flow break-even. With a billion-dollar revenue opportunity targeted for 2027 and strong minimum revenue commitments already in place, the company is positioned to lead the next era of global connectivity.
