GREAT is a European Project for the Galileo organisation, spearheading the development of technology for Mass Market Receivers for the forthcoming Galileo satellite positioning system. GREAT was set up by PA Consulting Group – a leading technology management specialist with over 25 years’ experience in the design of mobile communications products – who have led a Consortium of satellite navigation experts from across Europe.

This particular project is about to complete its work and we invite you to a workshop/presentation to describe the results of this work. It will be an opportunity to see how this technology will lead to highly accurate location products.

To register for this workshop please email: reg.hannam@paconsulting.com by Wednesday 7th May.
