Airtel partners with Musk’s SpaceX to bring Starlink satellite internet services into India
Airtel has signed an agreement with Elon Musk-owned SpaceX to bring Starlink’s high-speed internet services to its customers in India, the telecom operator informed stock exchanges in a filing on Tuesday.
Boosting Telecom Services in Remote Areas
Satellite telecom in India will help the country provide much-needed services to remote interior places where conventional telecom services tend to be costly.
First-of-Its-Kind Agreement in India
The Bharti Airtel informed stock exchanges that this is the first agreement to be signed in India, which is subject to SpaceX receiving its own authorisations to sell Starlink in India.
Expanding Connectivity and Business Synergy
This agreement enables Airtel and SpaceX to further explore how Starlink can complement and expand Airtel’s offerings, and how Airtel’s expertise in the Indian market complements SpaceX’s direct offerings to consumers and businesses.
Airtel and SpaceX will explore offering Starlink equipment in Airtel’s retail stores, Starlink services via Airtel to business customers, opportunities to connect communities, schools, and health centres, among many others, in even the most rural parts of India.
The stock filing added Airtel and SpaceX will also explore how Starlink could help expand and enhance the Airtel network, as well as SpaceX’s ability to utilise and benefit from Airtel’s ground network infrastructure and other capabilities in India.
