On Thursday 8 January 2026, Luxembourg-based satellite connectivity provider OQ Technology and Monogoto, a provider of cloud-based hybrid connectivity, announced a strategic partnership at the world’s largest technology trade show, Consumer Electronics Show (CES), in Las Vegas, United States (US).
The collaboration adds OQ’s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation to Monogoto’s existing hybrid ecosystem, which already includes partnerships with GEO satellite networks.
According to the two connectivity providers, with this expansion, Monogoto’s customers can connect devices without interruption across public and private cellular networks, Wi-Fi, and GEO and LEO satellites, using a single SIM, unified IP addressing and consistent APIs.
“OQ Technology’s mission is to extend cellular Internet of Things (IoT) and Direct-to-Device (D2D) beyond terrestrial boundaries,” said Omar Qaise, founder and CEO of OQ Technology. “By partnering with Monogoto, our LEO constellation becomes part of a truly hybrid connectivity platform, bringing satellite IoT to enterprises and operators worldwide by leveraging our valuable spectrum and landing rights,” he added.
The partnership integrates OQ’s 3GPP-compliant 5G NTN NB-IoT service into Monogoto’s platform, reportedly extending coverage and reliability for industries such as energy, logistics, maritime, agriculture and utilities that operate beyond the reach of terrestrial networks.
“For the first time, LEO is joining our hybrid connectivity landscape,” said Maor Efrati, co-founder and CTO of Monogoto. “We believe LEO will drive a fundamental shift in global communications. Our mission is to do what we do best, lower the barriers to adoption and empower customers to explore and deploy LEO connectivity alongside their existing cellular, Wi-Fi and GEO satellite networks,” he continued.
