HAPS Alliance, an association of telecommunications, technology, aviation, and aerospace companies, has been created to advocate for High Altitude Platform Station (HAPS) business development with authorities in various countries, build a cooperative HAPS ecosystem, develop common product specifications and promote the standardization of HAPS network interoperability. “We are very encouraged that many leaders from across the communications and aerospace industries are joining us in our mission to bridge the digital divide with high altitude vehicles,” said Juniche Miyakawa, Representative Director & CTO of Softbank Corp. “Together with our Alliance partners, we will lay the groundwork for an ecosystem that fosters HAPS connectivity solutions around the world.” Among other members of the alliance are Alphabet’s Loon, AeroVironment, China Telecom Corporation Limited, Nokia and Telefonica.
