Paul Jacobs, the former CEO and chairman of San Diego-based chipmaker Qualcomm, was tapped to lead the satellite firm that makes Apple’s emergency communication service possible.
Last year, Globalstar partnered with Apple to launch its Emergency SOS feature that allows iPhone 14 users to text for help even without a cell signal.Advertisement Jacobs, the son of Qualcomm co-founder Irwin Jacobs, holds multiple degrees from the University of California Berkley, including a doctorate in electrical engineering and computer science.
In 2021, XCOM formed a strategic alliance with Globalstar and now, it will license the startup’s technology through a strategic perpetual licensing agreement.
