EchoStar Corporation is a publicly traded company (NASDAQ: SATS). We operate two primary businesses, a digital set-top box business and a fixed satellite services business. Our set-top box business designs, develops and distributes set-top boxes and related products for direct-to-home satellite service providers. In 2007, our equipment sales totaled $1.5 billion. Most of our equipment was sold to DISH Network Corporation, but we also sold set-top boxes to Bell ExpressVu and other international customers. We currently employ over 700 engineers in our set-top box and related businesses. Our fixed satellite services business will be developed using our nine owned or leased in-orbit satellites and related FCC licenses, a network of seven full service digital broadcast centers, and leased fiber optic capacity with points of presence in approximately 150 cities. All of these assets will be contributed to us on the distribution date. We expect that our primary customer initially will be DISH Network Corporation. However, we also expect to lease capacity in the spot market and to government and enterprise customers. Find out more about the Management Team that is leading EchoStar into the future.
