Originally founded in 1980, EchoStar and DISH were once the same company, and share a common history of innovation, disruption and an obsession with customer service. Since our founding, our teams have been empowered to do the unprecedented and create an unparalleled experience for our customers. In 2008, the two companies were spun off as separate entities and forged ahead so each could focus on and expand their unique capabilities. In that time as separate entities, our teams have achieved remarkable milestones—launching satellites into space, connecting millions to their favorite entertainment and reimagining wireless communication.
