Business Wire (a Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary) forecasts VSAT (very small aperture terminals) to thrive. Quote from the article:

"The broadband services segment will grow rapidly during the forecast period.

Furthermore, the increasing demand for higher data rates is prompting VSAT terminal vendors to develop and introduce new product models, which can support services demanded by customers."
