SHARE The European Union's antitrust regulators are scrutinizing the potential impact of Elon Musk's SpaceX-owned Starlink on the competitive landscape of the satellite industry. This review comes amid a $3.1-billion merger proposal between European satellite giants SES and Intelsat. Regulators have reached out to customers of SES and Intelsat to gauge whether Starlink represents a credible threat to the established players. This feedback is crucial as it will influence the European Commission's decision on the merger. The ruling, expected soon, could range from a green light with no strings attached, to a full-scale investigation if substantial concerns about competition are identified. The outcome will dictate the future of satellite competition in Europe. (With inputs from agencies.)
