New strategic hub Nova Reply

Strategic center for innovation and the development of advanced digital solutions

Nova Reply participates in the creation of a new technology Hub, located in Castel S. Pietro Terme (BO), dedicated to next-generation networks: B5G/6G with a focus on the satellite domain and convergence with terrestrial networks.

An ecosystem of excellence: the strength of strategic partners

Nova Reply's vision transcends traditional networking boundaries.

The Hub has been designed to meet the growing need for "pervasive distributed connectivity", capable of uniting critical infrastructures and remote areas. Through the adoption of next-generation networks (5G NTN and D2D), Nova Reply aims to transform technological complexity into a competitive advantage for its Clients, ensuring flexibility, speed, and security.

Achieving such ambitious technological milestones cannot be a solitary journey. For Nova Reply, the Hub represents a convergence point of excellence, where the integration of vertical technologies allows for the provision of complete and cutting-edge solutions.

Collaboration with market-leading partners is the cornerstone of this strategy:

  • CELESTE Technologies: Essential for the gnodeB 5G NTN & D2D product component. It supports the implementation of cutting-edge radio access architectures capable of managing non-terrestrial communications (NTN) and direct device-to-device communications (D2D).

  • AAlyria: a leader in intelligent network orchestration systems, AAlyria provides the necessary "minds" to manage the extreme dynamism of future networks.

  • Sateliot: a Spanish provider of next-generation 5G NTN LEO (Low Earth Orbit) satellite connectivity, Sateliot extends the reach of solutions offered by Nova Reply. With LEO satellite coverage, it is possible to ensure global, secure, and resilient 5G connectivity.

Towards the future of connectivity

With this new Hub, Nova Reply does not just provide consulting, but positions itself as a true "enabler of ecosystems". The integration of vertical skills in networking and a deep understanding of digital transformation processes allow the Reply Group company to respond decisively to the challenges of an increasingly connected world, where space and defense represent the new frontier of technological innovation.

The mission is clear: to build the infrastructure of tomorrow, making connectivity ubiquitous, secure, and, above all, at the service of those shaping the future of society and global security.

The importance of the ecosystem: synergies for innovation

Achieving such ambitious technological milestones in a complex domain like Aerospace and Defense cannot be a solitary journey. For Nova Reply, adopting a model of open collaboration with key market players — from hardware giants to chipset suppliers and academic institutions — is the key to accelerating the time-to-market of next-generation solutions.

The Hub serves as a convergence point for these strategic partnerships, which are essential for two main reasons:

The challenge of integrating terrestrial, satellite, and subsea networks requires shared protocols and industry standards that only a broad partner ecosystem can deliver. Collaboration enables the creation of a common language, making true "ubiquitous connectivity" possible.

In this context, Nova Reply acts as the catalyst that unlocks the potential of its partners' technologies, transforming them into real-world application value for its Clients' mission-critical operations.

The collaboration with leading and certified technology partners enables Nova Reply to validate its orchestration solutions directly on next-generation hardware and to integrate security-by-design into every layer of the network architecture, ensuring maximum resilience against cyber threats for its Clients. This approach delivers fully optimized network software, maximum resilience, and the highest security standards, making it ideal for mission-critical sectors such as Defence.
