The first five years of Stellar: and we’re just getting started

Five years ago, Stellar started with a simple belief: connectivity should not fail when everything depends on it. 

Today, that belief feels more relevant than ever. Autonomous systems, mobility platforms, smart infrastructure, industrial operations, and government applications all rely on uninterrupted communication to function in real time. That is exactly why Stellar exists. 

Stellar offers resilient connectivity across networks by orchestrating terrestrial and satellite communication technologies into a single, continuous internet connection.   Through true multi-network orchestration with aggregation and seamless switching, Stellar removes the dependency on any single network and keeps critical systems connected where traditional connectivity falls short.  

Five years later, what started as an ambitious idea has grown into deployments across more than 35 countries and over 100 customers.   From STEER® to GLOBBLE®, terrestrial and satellite connective, from mobility and EV charging to smart infrastructure and mission-critical environments, we are proud of what the team has built together. 

To celebrate this big milestone, we gathered almost the entire team in Bordeaux. We surfed, cooked, brainstormed, sang karaoke, and somewhere around 1am even recorded a spontaneous podcast episode to commemorate the moment and why these get together a matter so much to us as a team and company (listen to it here). But the most valuable part was not the agenda itself. It was the conversations in between. The honest discussions, the ideas exchanged, and the moments that remind us why building together in person matters so much. 

Over these five years, the industry has also recognized the work being done by the team. Amongst many achievements, winning the Logistics Startup Competition at the Paris Motor Show in 2024 and receiving the Made in France Award at CES 2025 were proud milestones, not only because of the recognition itself, but because they reflect the growing importance of resilient connectivity in the world we are building toward. 

And despite everything achieved so far, it still feels like the beginning. 

We are already working with companies we are incredibly proud of. We are helping build solutions that move people, connect infrastructure, support operations, and make entire systems smarter and more resilient. Seeing the impact of that work in the real world gives us even more energy for what comes next. 

Because after five years, we know one thing for certain: there is still so much left to build. 

That is what excites us most. 

The doors ahead feel wider open than ever before. The opportunities are bigger. The ambition is bigger. And while we are incredibly proud of everything that brought us to this point, what truly motivates us is imagining what Stellar can still become over the next five years and beyond. 

To every Stellarian, customer, partner, and supporter who has been part of this journey so far: thank you. 

We are only getting started.
