A license to offer internet services in Zambia has been granted to Starlink by the Zambian Government through the Electronic Government Division – SMART Zambia, following the completion of many prosperous trial projects throughout the nation.
(Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, is the owner of Starlink, a satellite internet service provider.)
According to Mr. Percy Chinyama, the National Coordinator – SMART Zambia, the introduction of Starlink to the Zambian market will help close the digital divide between rural and urban areas.
Mr. Chinyama continues by saying that “Starlink’s internet services will promote social and economic growth in rural areas.”
