When it gets off the ground, New ICO (pronounced Eye-Co) will be a land-and-satellite-based communications system with global coverage. The company was formed when the former ICO Global Communications emerged from bankruptcy protection in 2000, thanks to a $1.2 billion investment from a group led by US telecommunications trailblazer Craig McCaw. New ICO plans to provide mobile voice, data, and Internet services through a network of 12 satellites (being built by Hughes Electronics) beginning in 2003. ICO is gearing its service primarily for such industries as transportation, oil, gas, and construction. The company is being combined with Teledesic, another satellite communications venture controlled by McCaw.
