Notre objectif est d'être les premiers sur le marché mondial des services multimédia avec une système économique de satellites et de terminaux «bon marché» au sol. Sativod, a l'opposé de l'ambitieux projet Teledesic de Bill Gates, utilisera des technologies existantes et peu complexes sans s'approprier une importante bande de fréquences. Ce sera un système souple, compatible et évolutif qui s'adaptera aux systèmes terrestres et au progrès des applications du numérique.
