Daniel Gizinski on mission critical communications
From Space & Satellite Futures: Why I Serve, Episode 1: with Daniel Gizinski · · SSPIVideo
“Our primary focus as an organization is mission critical communications. And so there's a variety of ranges of satellite connectivity. We tend to excel and tend to deliver on the type of connectivity that has to be there no matter what. And whether that's in challenging environmental conditions, in a contested, battlefield type environment. Ensuring that that connectivity is there, it's available, and it supports those mission critical applications, I think is really the area that we excel.”

About Daniel Gizinski
Daniel Gizinski, president of the satellite and space segment at Comtech, appeared on the SSPI podcast "Why I Serve" in April 2026 and at SATShow Week in March 2026. On the podcast, Gizinski discussed his career path from engineering to executive leadership and his recent appointment to the SSPI board of directors. He described Comtech as a company with a history of over 60 years that supports emergency services, including next-generation 911 call routing. Gizinski also noted a trend toward sovereign satellite capabilities, stating that countries are seeking flexible, lower-cost solutions rather than dedicating billions to satellite programs. He emphasized the importance of effectively communicating the industry's technical and regulatory complexity to gain recognition and support. At SATShow Week, Gizinski highlighted Comtech's delivery of its first DCG7000 series modems and demonstrations of multi-orbit support and software-defined network architecture. He identified key industry trends as the shift toward digitized architectures, multi-orbit capabilities, and the integration of 5G and non-terrestrial networks. Gizinski said Comtech has built its next-generation product family to support 5G waveforms and sees the company playing a role in backend infrastructure as the industry evolves.
